Richard Dunne sat out the second part of Ireland's session this morning in Dublin but the defender is expected to be fit for Fridays World cup qualifier with Sweden at the Aviva.

Shane Long sat out the session but only because he played for West Brom yesterday.

Robbie Brady and Marc Wilson also missed training because of a knock and bruised foot respectively, Brady will undergo a scan on that injury today.

James Mc Carthy has been excused from the squad until tomorrow and could finally move to Everton before the close of play tonight.
