Liverpool make it through the last sixteen in a CL. For the first time since 2007?
21 - Liverpool have scored 21 goals in the Champions League this season, the most by an English side in a single CL group campaign. Prolific. pic.twitter.com/R1SkyBSW33

Congrats, Liverpool! Now, please get a defender in the January transfer window?
306 - The 2017/18 Champions League group stage saw a total of 306 goals scored; the most in a group stage campaign in competition history. Frenzy. pic.twitter.com/mEl5lIMCpf

From what I've seen, the matches have been more free flowing this year
5 - England are the first nation to have five different teams qualify for the Last 16 of the Champions League (since 2003-04). Party.

Well, one thing to be proud of, I guess
6 - Cristiano Ronaldo is the first player to ever score in each of the six games of a #UCL group round (nine goals). Infallible. pic.twitter.com/yVuf3HVs70

Opta's thesaruses get a working out, don't they?
17 - Phil Foden is the youngest player to start a Champions League match for Manchester City (17y 191d). Promise. pic.twitter.com/gLujaXkIW3

He's a defender iirc, but Guardiola had him play in the midfield
100 - This will be Pep #Guardiola’s 100th @ChampionsLeague game as manager, becoming the sixth to reach that landmark after Sir Alex Ferguson, Arsène Wenger, Carlo Ancelotti, José Mourinho and Mircea Lucescu. Milestone. pic.twitter.com/qZpcCQq5ER

Simeone used Europea League as a launching pad to take ATM to the next level. So, I won't worry about him
