Wales arrived in the Liechtenstein capital on Monday night with a full 18-man squad following a week which had seen injury and withdrawals take their toll on manager John Toshack's resources.

Having failed to fill their substitutes' bench on Saturday for the World Cup qualifying Group Four defeat in Finland, Toshack at least now has a fully-fit squad at his disposal.

The final piece of a complicated jigsaw of flights to and from the UK, eventually saw uncapped Walsall winger Mark Bradley meet up with the squad when they arrived in Zurich.

The previous day in Helsinki, MK Dons striker Jermaine Easter, the under-21 skipper Shaun MacDonald and Leicester's Andy King had arrived to bolster a squad that had lost Wayne Hennessey and Craig Bellamy to suspension, to make it 10 players from the original squad now missing.

Toshack's squad trained in Finland this morning, and the manager said: "I'm just relieved to have a full squad, and that nobody picked up any injuries in training."

Wales' flight from Helsinki to Zurich - the nearest international airport to Vaduz - was delayed for over an hour due to a snowfall and the need to clear the plane's wings of ice.

The Wales party eventually touched down in Switzerland for a two-hour coach journey to Vaduz, where they will train on Tuesday ahead of the clash with Liechtenstein.
