    Never been a great fan of his - don’t think his heart is in it. Never see him noise the game up by making a strong challenge or getting in the refs ear. Ability-wise not bad.

    Being a good centre mid in our league is more than just what you do with the ball. And he’s nothing special when it comes to that either.

    Every professional footballer impresses someone enough at some point, or he wouldn't be a professional footballer. The vast majority however, aren't capable of sustaining whatever they did to impress game after game, season after season. Careers are spent descending to weaker and weaker leagues.

    Slivka's in this category for me.

    Absolute shocker he had last night, as did most for the first 45 mins

    I'd hardly write him off based on that

    He's often a solid 7, frustrating as that is as he could probably be much more than that

    Happy to keep as part of the squad

    Nothing about last night. He’s a mediocre player that hasn’t improved or the team doesn’t improve when he’s in it.

    He’s not often a solid 7? One game he’ll be a 2 then a 7 then back to a 2 the next

    He’s far too inconsistent for where we want to be

    Totally agree, look at the body language and to be frank, lack of effort at the Accies goal last night, looked uninterested and so should we be in keeping him

    Depends who we bring in, but I don’t think we’ll learn anything new by playing Slivka between now and the end of the season. Whenever there’s a space up for grabs I’d rather give Murray a run and see if he can take his chance or another one we’re best moving on.

    All our starting midfield were poor in that first half but Slivka lost his man for their first goal . I wouldn’t be too fussed if he was allowed to leave as we need a midfielder who stamps his authority in every game . Not one in three at best .

    I remember a couple of games after Slivka's arrival after a 1-1 draw up at Dundee there was a thread on here waxing lyrical about him being a baller and putting in a great performance.

    It was totally puzzling analysis because that he day he put in a 6 out of 10 display, didnt do much wrong but didnt really do anything of note - the type of performance that we've seen consistently from him over the last 2 years.

    It might have been the Juventus link, possibly the fact the had lots of international caps ( both red herrings) or maybe it was his peach of a goal against Rangers - but some people were clearly overestating his ability and continued to do so for some time. In fact some still do.

    He’s never a consistent 7 unless you go by the Hanlon is a 8/9 every game.

    He’s 5 with the occasional 8. Drops to 3.

    His best game was against Rangers when he scored a peach, which if memory serves was his first. That for me says it all

    I've been in the "give him more game time" category for his whole time here but you have to draw the line somewhere and his time must surely be up now. There is definitely something missing here, lack of commitment, bit shy in the tackling department, attitude when we are losing, never looking like he'd do whatever it takes to stay in the team, not exactly a wage thief but never employee of the month either. We need to free up his wage now and get someone in who will take the job seriously.

    Wouldn't be inclined to give him a new contract and if we can get someone else in , we'd be as well letting him go sooner rather than later.

    Useful squad player but has had plenty chances to cement his place in the team. Would be surprised if he got another contract.

    I know there’s a player in him but he’s not getting a regular first team action. I think his head is down, time to get rid.

    Not even on the bench today.

    Not surprised. Heart of a mouse when it comes to a scrap.

    If only Murray had been given the number of opportunities Slivka has had we might have seen him flourish.

    I think his time is up.

    If an offer comes in for him this month and we can sign a replacement it'll be accepted otherwise he will be away at the end of his contact in the summer.

    I think he has good qualities but he isn't suited to Scottish Football and hasn't adjusted to it since being here. Will do well if he goes somewhere where he can get time on the ball without as much of the physical stuff and good luck to him when it happens.

    That about sums it up, decent ability but can’t sustain it. Think we might try and offload him this week if we can get someone in.

    Was a big advocate of his after what I thought was a really promising first season and looked okay last year - but he really needed to prove his worth this year, and he just doesn’t offer enough.

    Be interesting to see where he goes after us, but his wage could surely be better used.

    Had plenty chances and has never grasped them. An average midfielder who’s only a good bench warmer and maybe not even that if I’m honest.

    I want to see hungry players, players that’ll come on and make that difference, Slivka does not fit that category.

    However having said all that he’ll get my 100% backing as long as he wears the jersey with a bit of pride.

    I thought he needed to prove his worth last year as opposed to this. We lost players, he had the chance to step up, he didn’t.

    I’ve heard he’s actually suspended today?
