ποΈ GVB: Very sad news on Wim Jansen. I know the family for many years and I am thinking of them.
He was the coach when I was a youth player to let me train with the first-team, he really helped me in my development.
ποΈ GVB: Joe (Aribo) is travelling back today and will be back in Glasgow tonight. We will assess him on his return, he will be back for sure come the weekend.
ποΈ GVB: It is important to review all decisions after a game, we do this as players and coaches and is the same for referees.
It is important to review your performance to help improve, we do it as players and coaches.
ποΈ GVB: We will look at what is best for Lowry for his development, he needs to be playing games - either for the first-team or the B-Team.
ποΈ GVB: We expect a tough 90 minutes tomorrow, Livingston have shown they can be very hard to beat. A good team who can keep it compact.
We have to be in our top game to get the three points.
ποΈ GVB: Ianis (Hagi) needed an operation, he went for this yesterday and we will sadly be missing Ianis for the season.
I spoke to Ianis yesterday, he is positive and focused on his recovery.
ποΈ GVB: Ryan Jack and Scott Arfield will be back available for the squad tomorrow.
ποΈ GVB: We know some players are out of contract soon, this is a continuous process and it is not new to me as a player or coach.
We will make the right decisions when they have to be made.
ποΈ GVB: Missing Ianis (Hagi) is a big blow. We will look to add a player if they are right but we would only add someone who will improve the talented group.
ποΈ GVB: It is only one game for Alex (Lowry), his mindset is really good and we are sure he can develop even more.
He just needs to work hard every day.
ποΈ GVB: Ianis (Hagi) had to have a knee procedure, we look forward to welcoming him back once fully recovered.
Helander is training and doing well but is a little too soon.
Steven Davis is at the end of his rehab from injury and will join training in the near future.

ποΈ GvB: No fresh injury concerns. Roofe will be involved tomorrow as will Leon Balogun, it is a little too early for Jack.
Arfield trained a little bit today so will hopefully join next week along with Davis.
ποΈ GvB: Alfredo has been in great form, he has shown great development since our arrival, I'm really happy for him and he deserves the International call-up.
ποΈ James Tavernier has arrived to speak to the media.
ποΈ JT: Most teams who come to Ibrox try to frustrate us, it is important for us to find the solutions. We have a gameplan we have been working on the past few days to get the result that we need.
ποΈ JT: The boss has a bunch of tactics we can use against different opponents, so far it has worked good and we have got the results we need.
We trust the boss and we are all working hard on the finer details of the tactics to get better.
ποΈ JT: Really looking forward to facing Dortmund, as a footballer you always want to play against world-class players.
ποΈ It's press conference day ahead of Wednesday's match against St Johnstone.
Giovanni van Bronckhorst has arrived to speak to the media, live updates to follow.
ποΈ GvB: For me, it is an exciting @EuropaLeague draw for the club, against a top side in Europe. A quality opponent and it is a hard draw, but we want these challenges in football to compete with the best.
ποΈ GvB: Kemar (Roofe) has a setback and will hopefully return before the winter break.
