Wales caretaker manager Brian Flynn has promised his team will go for a high-tempo attacking style to win their crucial Euro 2012 qualifier against Bulgaria on Friday evening.

"It's a must-win game and we're prepared for that," said Flynn, whose side are six points behind leaders England and Montenegro in Group G with a game in hand.

"The team is set up to score goals. Tactically it will be slightly different. We're at home, we need to win the game and the emphasis will be on attack.

"We've got a couple of secret weapons and I've said to the players, the forwards in particular, that they've got a licence to thrill.

"We will be playing with a quick tempo. We've got fantastically quick and athletic players in every position and that gives us a head start.

"John Toshack did a fantastic job laying the foundations of this side and we need to take it on from there."

The ever-positive Flynn brushed aside questions about the absence of captain Craig Bellamy, who was ruled with his long-standing knee injury despite playing 94 minutes for Cardiff City last Saturday.

"He's a fantastic player but I'm more concerned about those that are here," said Flynn. "They're the most important at the moment and it's up to them to show we can do it without Craig Bellamy. We have the players to do that, I'm certain.

"I've been really impressed with Steve Morison in training this week, he's made a big impact and we will have a few other surprises."

Flynn will be without injured duo Ched Evans and Joe Allen, who have both been ruled out of tonight's match with groin strains but may still be available for the trip to Switzerland.
