What constitutes a "World Class" Player? An International player?
And they dont have 5 or 6 of them? Rooney, Kagawa, van Persie, Vidic, Fellaini and few other internationals probably arent too pleased with comments like that.

A world class player is a player that would start or at least be in the conversation to start, for any team. Manchester United have one absolute world class player in Vidic - I don't believe that there is as good a central defender as him in the world. Robin van Persie is certainly in the mix as one of the top five strikers in the world, but the rest of them I really don't know about. Maybe Wayne Rooney, but that would be about it. He certainly was a world class player about five years ago, but not anymore. Kagawa isn't even getting into the Manchester United side on a regular basis so you can hardly call him world class. Fellaini is not even in the conversation.
If you look at Bayern Munich or Barcelona, they each have five or six players that would be in the conversation to start for any dream team. Barcelona have Messi, Pique, Dani Alves, Xavi, Iniesta, Busquets, Fabregas and Neymar. Any of those eight players would walk right into Manchester United's starting eleven, wouldn't you agree?
