Ryan Giggs discusses how Liverpool and Manchester City compare to Manchester United treble winners

Manchester United legend and Wales manager Ryan Giggs insisted the Red Devils side which won the treble in the 1998-99 season were stronger than the current Liverpool and Manchester City. Manchester City won the Premier League, League Cup and FA Cup in one season. While Liverpool won their sixth Champions League and finished runners-up in the Premier League. Speaking on The United Stand Giggs said: "Would the 1999 team win the league? 100 per cent. It would not be easy, but we would. The City side are fantastic, wth a fantastic coach, but that team was something special." When asked about the greatest teams he played for, Giggs again said he couldn't look past Sir Alex Ferguson's team of 1998-1999. "I must say the first double-winning team, 93/94, that was a good team," he added. "We didn't do well in Europe but that was a special team. "The 2007/2008 team was ridiculous, with ridiculous players. But the best team will always be 1999 for what we achieved, stregnth in depth and what they had, but it is very difficult to separate those three teams."
