Ulises 'hints' at exit

"Maybe I will be leaving," the 32-year-old said, throwing belongings into a hastily arranged nap sack. "I have had no offers thus far but maybe after the World Cup I will. But I would definitely love to stay in England because I like the language, culture and style of play." Some would say that by consuming a full English each morning, the full-back is taking his adoration a little too far but there are some situations when he would rather avoid the place. "I prefer Sweden and not England but it is not a decision for Ecuador (to make)," he said of Ecuador's World Cup hopes. "We would be more confident when playing Sweden because England are so strong on free-kicks, corners and in the air. The English team is very good and they have a great midfield."
