Valencia striker Dorlan Pabon has insisted that the Spanish outfit will overcome their poor start to the season.

The La Liga side have lost six of their opening 13 league games this season, with a total of 17 points leaving them in ninth position in the table.

"The team is united and has always had a good attitude," he told the club's official website. "Sometimes we have not played how we would have likes, but we are a family and we stick together.

"We are recovering though, and I'm sure, little by little, we can get back to our best.

"We have goals that we want to reach, but we have to earn respect from opponents through our performances."

Valencia have already lost three times on their own patch this season.
