Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers are in European action again tonight, with Steven Gerrard looking to protect his unbeaten record in management.
Rangers are in action against FC Ufa in the Europa League later this evening, as they look to progress through qualifying.
Rangers have an unbeaten record in European football this season, and Flanagan is determined to keep that run going.
“When I spoke to the gaffer before I signed, he had the idea of European football. He had the same conversation with all the other signings,” the full-back revealed.
“We are all together as one and we want to be in this European competition.
“You cannot beat a European night during the week, those nights are fantastic and you travel all over the world.”
Rangers take a 1-0 lead to Russia with them, after winning the first leg at Ibrox.
Connor Goldson was the scorer on that occasion, with the contest proving to be a tightly contested one.
Rangers will realise that challenge that there are up against in Russia, but if they can grab an away goal then they will be in a strong position to qualify.
It remains to be seen whether Flanagan will be selected this evening, as the defender has played a rotational role at Rangers since signing so far.
