    Heard he’s rejected a new contract so probably playing to impress new teams.

    Personally would have kept him.

    Im Undecided on him after 2 years so probably no.



    Hes capable, but lacks consistency. I think we can get better.

    yes.

    Always feel that if he comes in he'll do a decent job.

    keeps the others on their toes.

    That would be a shame. I think he's a useful member of the squad. To be fair to him he'll want to be playing every week.

    The other thread showed the difference in results between a Hallberg & Slivka CM partnership Vs anything else, on that basis alone he has his name nailed on the starting 11 sheet alongside Hallberg.

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

    Definitely has the talent I think.
    This for me.
    I think Slivka is a very classy "Euro" type midfielder, but he needs a consistent run of starts to really develop properly. I actually think we could build a fantastic midfield around him and SA. I'd rather have him starting than Mallan just now tbh.

    I would like him to stay but if there is any truth in this statement, I would get shot if possible in January. Once a player’s intentions and aspirations are made public, he is a dead man walking. Has the club actually mentioned his rejection?

    No and could quite possibly be he has rejected our initial offer

    Yes. Jack Ross has been using him and we're bagging points, Heckingbottom wasn't using him, I'll leave it at that.

    However, I think that we are in the market for a defensive midfielder to allow Hallberg to be more box to box. So that could be at the expense of Slivka.

    Personally I like him as a player. Tidy, skilful and tries to play with the head up. However, he is short of any real pace, sometimes wants too long on the ball and just doesn't impose himself on a game enough.

    The midfield still needs a bit of remodeling and I think that Slivka might not be part of that.

    I want to like Slivka. I just wished he was stronger in the tackle and scored more goals.

    I also wonder whether his improved form and end of contract is merely a coincidence.

  15. #74
    Has done ok recently and always gives Hibs 100%. A squad player for me. Contract or not I suppose it depends on whether we can bring in better. If we want to be serious about nailing down 3rd on a more regular basis, I think we need to recruit better in midfield.

    Good squad player. Compared to previous players I’ve seen play for Hibs in his position (eg Matt Thornhill, Isaiah Osbourne, Victor Palsson, Tom Soares, Tudor Jones etc), he’s a very solid player and a good option to have in the team.

    Our first offer is likely to have been at the lower end of what we could afford to pay him.

    I like him. He's a quality footballer but we need someone that can win the ball in midfield and for all his talent that is what he lacks. .

    Slivka is decent but there's surely a reason why he's never held down a starting spot in the team. The management see him every day, Lennon and Heckingbottom didn't play him every week, decent squad player and that's it.

    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.
    My thoughts too. Slivka has two good feet, composure, rarely gives the ball away, great at finding feet with his passes.

    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
    I think he adds a bit of physicality to the team. He is solid without having a big impact positively in the final third. He of course has been given a specific job which does not seem to give him the freedom to charge up the pitch at every opportunity.

  22. #81
    Yes from me.

    We so seem to be in a bit of a pattern with him though.
    He's out the side, we are too exposed in midfield and get over run and beaten. We bring him in, he plays really well, the team look more balanced and we win - he is first dropped.... & repeat. It's strange at times.

    Think Slivka, Allan, Halberg is our best 3 centrally

    I think he is decent. Maybe a good run of games would see him flourish.
    One or two injuries in midfield and he could be a key player we need!

    No way is Slivka ever good enough to warrant a starting place. Substitute maybe? We need a more hungry, consistent type of player.

    Slivka is bottom six material.

  25. #84
    Awful today. Confirmed what I’ve been thinking but didn’t want to say - not good enough, get rid.

  26. #85
    Looks decent in one game and abysmal in the next. Predictable.

  27. #86
    If we're basing it on today Allan and Boyle can join him. Great last game, hopeless today.

    I don’t think anyone is judging it solely on today, it’s just another example of the pattern of Slivka being good one week anonymous (I wasn’t at the game so based on what others have said about his performance today) the next.

    Deary me, that’ll be our 2 best players who just won us the derby?

    Not comparable to slivka. Not even slightly.

    Slivka far too inconsistent. We can do better

    Where were they today? Boyle is a horrendous striker. Winger or bench.
