I've seen Skidz offer lots of help to lots of people on this forum. But it will all be opinion, as is every piece of advice given on here. There is little or no hard data/conclusive facts.

Besides, there is no evidence to suggest that either is better as it's all conjecture. Maybe we should start a poll?

I prefer MoM. It works for most formations.
for you.

thats the problem I have, people on here are good for trying to help but its not about wording as much as believing something where there is little or no hard data/conclusive facts, like you said.

and you cant just go and say that everything on here is opinion or it all should be seen as opinion. Thats not how some people come across, whether they are helping people or not. Like you just said, I prefer MoM, it works for most formations, for you.

I just think its important to let people know that when you personalize the statement that it makes it known that it is not going to work for everyone. How many posts on here are complaints that narrow diamond didnt beat 4-4-2 classic? or v style didnt beat 4-3-3? I see that people write the formation that works for them and they say: I won with this formation. you said you prefer MoM and is works for most formations - and skids said the opposite, that zonal works for most formations, so which is true?

and to answer you original question last, no, i cant let it go because this is a good discussion on how or why zonal or M2M works better. It gets severely sidetracked by skids being so defensive, and lets face it, he did come across as saying zonal was the best for most formations, which is wrong for me and many other people, BUT IT WORKS FOR HIM, which is all that really matters to him. That is doesnt work for others is a bit of a damper for his statement though.

so I think a poll would do well to see what works for everyone
