The irony here is that even if we could have been drawn an English club in last 16 it wouldn't have happened anyway.

Milan or Istanbul will be quite special.

So - who do we want? Now we're in the knock-out stages, I think I would rather a team we can knock-out than a 'glamour' tie.
Let’s put our feet up, watch the next round with outside interest, and decide after that 👏

Not sure. Think I'd rather a 'glamour' club. If we win, fantastic and if we lose, no shame! Benfica/Milan....if either get through.

Edit: just to be clear, I think we're more than capable of beating all the remaining teams!

Don't think so - they're not English, so we could get them in the last 16.
I don't think we can because they are seeded like us.

As far as I know, all Group Winners are seeded, so can't play each other....hence we can't play Rangers in the next round. I stand to be corrected, though....
