Slivka yes or no

[BILLYHIBS]

Yes

Tidy player

Always likely to nick a goal in big games

Besides Juve do not sign duds

Staying positive he played ok today but I'd have liked to have seen more from both him and Horgan in the 2nd half. We were screaming out for a bit of composure on the ball and it wasn't until Mallan came on he made an effort to try and hold on to it to ease the pressure. Slivka is usually the player I look too to offer that but it wasn't happening for him today I'm that regard.

Completely agree. Great determination by us today and a win is a win but the standard of football against a rank Hearts side was poor Horgan Slivka were disappointing .

As a squad player - yes
As a first choice - no

He’s as likely to follow up a good game (like Aberdeen) with a bad game (Ross County). No consistency. He’s been here long enough to give no indications as to why that would change in the next 6months.

He gives the midfield the midfield the best balance from what is available, and I’d move a few on before him, but wouldn’t lose any sleep if we released him and used his wage for someone else.

I feel similarly. Happy to keep as a versatile squad player who always puts in a shift when called upon but not if it compromises getting in one or two new midfielders, which should be our priority in jan.

[weecounty hibby]

Yes every time. Has been since he came here.

Absolutely

[Shrekko]

Be mad to let him go- he’s still improving.

[Hermit Crab]

Absolutely yes!!

[Smartie]

It’s a yes from me.

Good player, some excellent attributes.

We do need to bolster the midfield with at least ones more player who can defend, but that will be a player to have in addition to Slivka, not instead of.

[Callum_62]

Definitely should try and extend his deal

Not flashy, no fuss, does a job, excellent on his day

Certainly a good squad player

Still only 24 as well

Absolutely yes, not a starter as others have pointed out but he is a decent player imo

[basehibby]

Difficult one. He's never been a certain starter but never far away either and I'm happy to say he's making a strong claim for a new deal with some good industrious performances this season. Ultimately it will be up to Ross to juggle the wage bill. If Slivka were to leave then it would leave a hole in the squad - could Ross make the team better spending those wages on a different player? His call - would be happy to see Vykintas stay as seems to be an improving player but not worth breaking the bank over.

[Jones28]

Good player, he was brought in from the cold after being dropped and it’s not exactly the best environment to make your return - DM would suggest otherwise. He was hard done by to not make his comeback sooner imo.

[murray26]

Definitely

[EdinMike]

Big yes, he’s does what you don’t notice.

[Centre Hawf]

He's the better option to put beside Halberg due to his size and ability to run and occasionally tackle more than Mallan. But I still think he lacks a bit of dig required, thought too often he vacated space for Hearts to drive into. There was a spell as well where he gave the ball way every time he touched it in the first half.

The guy has had 2.5 years here and I think in that time he's shown glimpses of why we thought he would turn out a player when signing him but over the entire period he's failed to show us why he should stay beyond this season for me.

Get your point but he's still definitely young enough to improve

More than good enough squad player with still potential to become a starter for me

[danhibees1875]

Yes. Very neat and tidy player, his only downfall was not being McGinn-like with his surging runs that got fans on his back a bit.

I like to think I'd have said yes to him regardless of him playing well yesterday and our 2-0 win but I certainly think this thread would have looked different had the result not been favourable.

Definitely could improve but I'm wondering if a change of scenery will bring that out of him. He needs to put a run of form together between now and the end of the season to win me round sadly.

Strange that, I thought we won and Slivka was an integral part of that win

He certainly was.👍

What do others see in him been here long enough for him to shine but only produced in a few games put it this how many other teams have tried to sign him from us mmmm that will be none

How do you know how many teams have tried to sign him ya slaver.

[Unseen work]

I’d keep him as a squad player.

He’s shown on his day he’s a good player and has good athleticism and good at driving forward with the ball or making runs.

He’s just missing the consistency to be a key player if we’re wanting to finish in the top 3/4.

We win our second derby in a row at Tynecastle. A great team effort from the players and fans. And YOUR first thought is to come on here and post that 🙄 I bet you're a hoot at parties.

[Eyrie]

Possibly.

I'd prefer a proper defensive midfielder but Slivka is a good option to have in the squad either as depth or for games where we expect to dominate possession so don't need a pure defender.

[The 90+2]

I was expecting significant improvement from him over a period to be honest and he was careless in possession a few times. I wouldn’t start start a thread on the guy the day of a derby pumping over them though.

[Since452]

Every Allan and Mallan needs a Slivka type

[DH1875]

Know I'm in the minority but I'm not a fan and don't get why so many rate him.

[marleyhib]

Yes, but needs to play regularly and could maybe do with some help with his confidence.

Definitely has the talent I think.

There was a question asked he gave his opinion that is what you're supposed to do ! If we win a derby should all 14 players taking part get new contracts ?

[Nicho87]

I’ve always been never really fussed for slivka. But if he keeps showing same sort of desire like Thursday that will work. Worthy of a one year deal if Ross thinks we can’t get better imo.

[Michael]

Has his moments, but I would hope we could sign an upgrade. He's been here a while and not yet cemented his place in the team.
