Hey Scotty,

I got knocked out of the cup in the last round so don't think I should be in the quarters.

You got through on a lucky loser due to 2 people not turning up for their match.

Really struggling on the recent league questions, will send over my pathetic effort ASAP.

Ah cool, tyty.

Just a typo, it was marked correctly.

[scotty2hatty]

The Opta article I got the stats from didn't have Dzeko listed, but looks like he too may have had a better record than Van Persie.
