Mikel Arteta has asked his Arsenal players to take advantage of the time and demonstrate how good they are when they face Paris Saint-Germain in the first stage of the Champions League semifinals tomorrow night.

Arsenal produced two elderly performances to see defending the champions of Real Madrid in the last eight But Arteta believes that there is even more to come.

Speaking ahead of the crash of the Emirates, he said: “This is a time to say that we are as a team. To play with this mentality. Now is where the limits are and where is where I want to go?

“Especially with the circumstances of this season and how we have overcome many problems and challenges and now we are one of the four best teams in Europe. It’s a beautiful story right now, but we want more.”
