Even after spending £105 million on his squad, Liverpool boss Kenny Dalglish is still miles away from challenging Manchester United, says Roy Evans.
The former Liverpool boss has warned success-starved Kopites they must give Dalglish the time to make the team one of the country's elite sides again.
"When you're at Liverpool, you always expect silverware," he told talkSPORT."That's the name of the game and that's what comes with the job.
"But I don't think it's going to be quite as easy as everybody thinks.
"Kenny has done a fantastic job and took them to a reasonable place last season.
"But, in the last home game of the season against Tottenham you saw that we were short of a little bit of class against the better teams.
"It's going to be tough. Everyone expects Kenny to turn it around quickly. But I think it's going to take a little bit more time than the fans would like.
"We're still a fair bit behind the top four or five clubs in the Premier League."
