Whilst I don't particularly like Sir Alex, I can't agree with yours and wj99's sentiments regarding him "leaving a squad on their last legs"
Think about it logically. If he had tinkered with his his squad/team in his final season, there would have been a very good chance that United would have missed out on the title. As it was, he accomplished his mission before handing over the reins to his successor. Do you really think he should have dismantled a successful side, building for possible future success, knowing that he would not be part of it?
