Messi is an excellent striker. An excellent play-maker, and probably the best footballer we've ever had. While he lost some of his magic in some areas, he became a lot better at others, especially play-making and free-kicks.
He was on his way to win the World Cup 2014 and played an excellent first half. The coach decided to change his position on the second half, and take out Lavezzi too. Argentina lost because the coach made dumb decisions, but it doesn't take away from Messi's greatness.
So I am 100% with you on this one. He is absolutely comparable to Pale and Maradona, and he is probably better than both.
