Mikel Arteta has called on Arsenal to seize a 'great opportunity' in the FA Cup final this weekend.

The Gunners have finished the season in a disappointing eighth but can still qualify for the Europa League if they beat Chelsea at Wembley on Saturday.

"Well, I need a month probably to get some conclusions!" Arteta said when asked about his first season in charge of the club.

"Since I arrived here on the 20th of December, so many things happened and so many stones have been in our way but I believe we have done a lot of progress in many situations.

"Around the environment as well that we are creating, the unity that the fans, team and club are showing at the moment and I think we are on a good track.

"We have a great opportunity now to have a good season if we are able to win against Chelsea in the final, lift the trophy and qualify for Europe."
