Sorry, don't mean to pile on while you are down, but I am not sure I understand your argument here.

Him vs you
R At: Form (9) L Def: SN (14) - 9/14
C A: Form (9) C Def: WC (13) - 9/13
L A: Sol (7) R Def: WC (13) - 7/13

You vs him
R A: Pass (6) L D: brilliant (11) 6/11
C A: weak (4) C D: form (9) 4/11
L A: inad (5) R D: Exc 5/8

Overall average:
His O vs Your D 62.5%
Your O vs His D 54%

(Now the correct way to look at these ratios is probably more like 9/(9+14) for the first one, but it still doesn't chance the outcome)

It looks to me like his offense was proportionately better than yours against the respective defences. Now with you having the edge in possession, maybe the most likely outcome would have been a tie. Am I looking at this in the wrong way.

And to lytic, midfield is not everything, as my matches this season will attest to. I've gotten hammered by teams with a great defense or a great offense despite having a 1-3 level advantage in midfield.
