Commenting on the ambition of his team, Arteta said: "They want more, going through those moments brings out a different desire because you lift it, you know exactly how it feels, and you want to reproduce that feeling as many times as possible.
"When I watched the games back, I was pleased with what I saw.
"I was more confident that the feeling I had before about how unlucky we were in moments not to go through to that final.
"It is a different moment, and the team has evolved."
