da luck: Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger believes England were "killed by their own impatience" during their crushing World Cup defeat by Germany.
da bet7: England were thrashed 4-1 by their old foes in Sunday's last 16 game in South Africa as they crashed out a competition where they had struggled to find any form.
"England were impatient," Wenger told Arsenal's official website."They came back in the second half to 2-1 and they controlled the game.
"What made me sad was that, with the experience they had, they were caught. It was 'free-kick for England, goal for Germany'.
"They had taken over the game and I think they were killed by their impatience.
"You do what they did with five minutes to go okay, but not with 25 minutes left."
Meanwhile, Wenger does not know whether physical or mental problems – both suggested by under-fire head coach Fabio Capello – were the real reasons for their poor showing.
"England suffered under pressure. They did not look sharp," he added.
"Also England did not seem to be at the level to use their main strength – the huge pace they put in the game.
"Was that physical fatigue or a mental reason? I do not know, but you never found the sense of English football in there."Subscribe to Football FanCast News Headlines by Email
