Eileen Gleeson will name her squad on Wednesday morning for the Sweden games - where she will be asked for her views on the controversial Gunners trip. “It’s a long travel trip with a quick turnaround so it’s directly post the end of the season, straight into a really long travel trip with a really quick turnaround directly before a qualifier,” she said.
