Nope. He was a reliable playmaker for all of those title-winning teams, but he was never the star.
He's more of the team player that's great in his own right, but his name is legendary because of all of the winning teams he was a part of. He's been a part of 12 league championship squads. For Giggs, it's more of team success than individual success. He never was a Golden Boot...in fact, he only hit double digits in goals twice (early on) in his career. He was a Player of the Month only three times.
So ONREEEEEEEEEE is probably the winner for best individual player.

Man, you know something is fricked up when the die-hard Liverpool fan is defending a Manc.
Asking whether Giggs was ever the best player on his team is a mind-numbing question. Pointless, really. Consider the players he has played with: Schmeichel, Keane, Neville, Ronaldo, Rooney, Scholes, Cantona, Ferdinand, Vidic. The list goes on and on.
Similarly, Henry can be faced with a similar dilemma. The Bergkamp vs Henry debate has long existed. Who really was the "greatest"? Many claim Henry was at his best playing alongside Bergkamp, and when he wasn't, he was a slightly different player. Henry was the better scorer, Bergkamp was the better player IMO.
At the end of the day, I'll give my vote to Giggs. Nobody can dream of matching his career. He is, after all, the greatest winger to ever play in the PL.
