The team lost 4-1 in Germany on Wednesday night, but Valverde is focusing on the positives and looking forward to their next match.

Valverde emphasized that teams like Borussia Dortmund and Arsenal are skilled and can take advantage of mistakes, but he believes the Champions League shouldn't be a source of disappointment for his team.

He pointed out that while the score may seem lopsided, Athletic Bilbao had six scoring chances and conceded four goals, which is a tough outcome given the circumstances.

Valverde compared the match to a recent game against Manchester, stating that the team can be vulnerable to scoring goals if they don't adapt to the conditions.

One positive aspect of the game was the debut of Ibon Sánchez as an attacking midfielder, which Valverde sees as a promising development for the team's future.
