While accepting this season has been disappointing for the Premier League title holders, Dalglish insists Slot deserves patience.
“It’s always easier to criticise someone than it is to praise them," Dalglish told The Athletic. "There’s a lot less patience these days and that’s a problem. If you don’t have patience, it’s unlikely you’ll have success.
"Nothing just grows overnight. Nobody has ever walked into a club and won a trophy straightaway. Everyone has an opinion but things could be a bit more constructive at times.
“The way we were brought up, it was all about the next game. Don’t look any further ahead than that. Liverpool’s last game was excellent. If we can put on performances like that most weeks, we’ll have a lot of pluses.”
