John Toshack is concerned players will withdraw from the Wales friendly against Luxembourg. Gareth Bale and Cardiff City's sole representative Darcy Blake, seem to be the biggest concerns due to Champions' League and Carling Cup commitments.
The following squad members also have Carling Cup commitments this week: Brian Stock (Doncaster Rovers), Andy King (Leicester City), Steve Morison (Millwall), Andrew Crofts (Norwich City), Chris Gunter, Robert Earnshaw (both Nottingham Forest), Craig Morgan (Preston North End), Simon Church (Reading), Ched Evans (Sheffield United), Ashley Williams (Swansea City) and possibly Sam Vokes (Bristol City) if loan club Wolverhampton Wanderers give him permission to play.
But if they all pull out, doesn't that mean using Wrexham players again? I'm not sure quite what the rules are but I think the clubs might be able to refuse permission or the players can pick up convenient knocks again.
I'm also worried about Craig Bellamy as he doesn't really do friendlies, he's not really a friendly sort of guy. Actually, maybe that's the reason why there are six strikers in the squad.
