I agree with that because Naruto is a battle match up to Pain.
The sharingan's only bad matchup is with someone with more numbers (Pain,Naruto) or faster with taijutsus (Itachi, the 4th and 3rd Raikage, Guy).
Naruto simply used the info he got from his comrades to make a strategy to beat Pain. Sasuke is strong but as he is currently he wouldn't win, has no allies that could help him. Karin could have found the nagato for sasuke and have him go straight to him but she would never help him now. Going back to Kakashi's bell test, teamwork always beat the lone opponent, Kakashi got that bell test from the 3rd Raikage.Its not that Naruto needs help but more that he knows how to make use of his comrades strenghts like his clone did by using Gaara's sand as a footing.
So you is saying Sasuke should had just kept being blind that go for Madara then huh lol.
Sasuke didn't rely on his base strenght and 3 tomoes sharingan but only on MS that he constantly spammed knowing he would go blind the more he use it. Itachi had MS since he was 13 and died at 21, 7 years with the MS when Sasuke had it for less than a month. Why could Sasuke just use his base strenght and not spam MS like Itachi would according to you he surpassed? Sasuke went blind so fast because he was to weak to fight his enemies, he could have further trained and not stupidly try to go against 5 kages (really 4 since Danzo ran). If Sasuke was a genius then he would have waited until Danzo was returning back to the leaf then took him out.
Maybe...... I doubt it though.

Zetsu counts the fox as Naruto's powers when he agreed that naruto beat pain by himself.
