Pearce has chosen Ryan Giggs, Craig Bellamy and Micah Richards as his over-age players, picking Richards ahead of Beckham because he wanted extra cover in defence. Others expected to make the squad are fringe internationals like Tom Cleverley, Daniel Sturridge, Ryan Bertrand and Birmingham City goalkeeper Jack Butland, the one player available for selection despite having been at the European Championships. Gareth Bale is likely to miss out with a back injury but his Welsh team-mate Aaron Ramsey is expected to be chosen in the squad of 18, which may not feature any players from Scotland or Northern Ireland.
Great Britain's first group match is against Senegal at Old Trafford on 26 July, the day before the official Games opening ceremony.

作为目前名气最大的英国足球明星,贝克汉姆被踢出英国国奥队曾引起轩然大波,但这并不代表小贝将缺席奥运会,据来自英国媒体的最新消息称,贝克汉姆有可能担任英国代表团在奥运会开幕式上的旗手,或将亲手点燃奥运圣火,英国奥组委希望借此来表达对小贝在申办奥运方面做出的巨大贡献。
英国申办奥运会时,贝克汉姆曾作为形象大使为最终申办成功付出了巨大的努力,而他在本届奥运会上的最大梦想,就是渴望以球员身份代表英国国奥队出战。国奥主帅皮尔斯本来将贝克汉姆列入了35人大名单,但最终在遴选18人名单时却将他剔除,这也让小贝的梦想沦为泡影。皮尔斯此举也引来前英格兰主帅埃里克森的炮轰:“他是一位旗帜,不管以哪种方式,他都应该融入到奥运会当中来。”
