Whilst this clearly works in favour of Man United, no player should ever be able to make demands on playing time, regardless of how good you are. If you play well you play more, if you play badly then don't expect to play much. I'm sure he probably meant he doesn't want to join a massive squad, but most top teams have huge squads nowadays.
Having said that though, I genuinely think United have a chance of bagging him, along with Kagawa. They would be a couple of awesome additions to the squad.
I didn't read it like that, of course it reads that he will go to the team he feels he will get to play more often but I don't read it as him demanding game time and there are a lot of factors that will have an effect on how often he will play such as squad size/depth and more importantly team tactics. For example United play with two attacking wingers so that's good for Hazard, but he will also be competing with top players for game time. At City they usually play with more central players playing out wide (who look to cut in like Silva and Nasri) so maybe unless Mancini is planning to play with proper wingers City may not be quite so appealing despite there lack of quality wide players. Arguably Chelsea suits him best with both a lack of quality wide players (even with De Bruyne and Marin coming in) and also the 4-2-3-1/4-3-3 formation they play providing with ample opportunity for game time.
Its a massive move for the lad's career so I don't think you can be too harsh in him taking his time over a decision.
