The rest absolutely as good or better. In fact, some of these guys, van Nistelroy, Trezeguet, Henry are over the hill.
Forlan/Recoba get punished for playing in what is basically a small market country. But based on raw talent they are as good as anyone.

Forlan plays in Spain. Recoba plays in Italy. We have a basis for comparison. Do you think van Nistelrooy scored more goals in La Liga than Forlan did because opposing defenders knew he was Dutch? Recoba was fifth on the depth chart at Inter last season; do you think he didn't get playing time because he was Uruguayan, or possibly because the four guys playing ahead of him were better?
