Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said it is time for Manchester United to take the next step and reach a first final since 2017 after they eased past Granada to set up a Europa League last-four meeting with Roma.
United won the Europa League in their last final but have lost all four semi-finals in which they have featured during Solskjaer's reign, including in this competition last season.
Their progress to a fifth was never in doubt after Edinson Cavani provided a smart finish to Paul Pogba's sixth-minute flicked header to extend their aggregate lead to 3-0, after a two-goal win in Spain last week.
United scored a second in stoppage time when Jesus Vallejo turned Alex Telles' cross into his own net.
"We will relish the chance to go to a final," said Solskjaer, who took over in December 2018.
"We want to use disappointments from the defeats we have had to motivate us to get to the final.
"The next step for this team is to get to a final and win a trophy. That will give this group of players something extra."
As Roma came through a nervy night at the Stadio Olimpico against Ajax, it means a reunion for United old boys Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Chris Smalling, who has been sidelined in recent weeks with a knee injury.
It was a notable night too for Cavani, whose first European goal for United was his 50th in total in continental competition, and ninth of the season overall and will intensify talk about whether the 34-year-old will sign an extension to his contract, which expires at the end of June.
