London calling: Rodwell becomes first England player to wear new 2012 shirt
Getting shirty: Gareth Bale and Aaron Ramsey caused a stir after wearing the top

Ramsey said last week: 'If we have the opportunity to play, why not? You're representing Great Britain in the Olympics. Having the chance to win a gold medal doesn't come around very often.

'Players, if given the opportunity, should go ahead and do it; I don't see what the problem is. I've spoken to Gareth Bale and he's up for it. I think the Welsh are fine with it. It's up to the players.'

Great Britain has not entered a team for the Olympics since 1972 and last qualified in 1960.
