Wednesday's defeat away to Tottenham in the first leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final followed a surprise draw against Manchester United.
It is the first time they have gone two games without a win under Slot and Van Dijk concedes it is a challenge to ignore the expectation that has built around a potential quad- ruple push.
He said: "Don't listen to all the noise from the outside because at the start of the season no one was thinking that we would be where we are right now. There's no point listening."
