Mendilibar: "Sometimes you don't play well and the result is with you"
Mendilibar felt the side lacked something despite their 2-0 win at Valencia in LaLiga.
Despite Mendilibar feeling that his team had not played to its potential, they beat Valencia 2-0 in LaLiga on Sunday.
manager Jose Luis Mendilibar has called on his players to rise above their recent struggles in La Liga and focus on Thursday's Europa League rematch with Manchester United.
"We have to gain confidence. Sometimes you don't play well and the result is with you. That makes you think that when you play well, you're going to do even better.
"It's going to give us peace of mind to be able to compete against Manchester on Thursday."
On Sunday, Man United won 2-0 away to Nottingham Forest in the Premier League.
Mendilibar is aware of the threat that Erik ten Hag's team will pose, but he seems confident in his team's future prospects.
"We hope to be able to bring quality into play from now on, not just with goals."
