Sasuke statement completely shotfired Naruto when he brought up good point in regarding Naruto weakness. Even Naruto didn't respond to that.
After I read this, looking back at my old thread for a while, I was one of a few who claimed that Naruto is clearly not fit to be shinobi without shadowclones and I'm assure most people arguably believed that the Bijuu is also his borrowed power.
However, unlike the ninetail chakra, Shadowclones is his "OWN" Fundamental technique, and practically, he always outnumbered any opponents and it took like almost a thoasands clones to take down a single foe, like for instance when he fought Neji, Gaara, Sasuke, Pain, Kaguya, etc and most of his clones got demolished.
So in other word, without his clones, Naruto would've been instantly dead if he had been reckless like he always did with his clones.
