Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has revealed that he was "sad" to hear that Fabio Capello had resigned as England coach.
The Italian stepped down on Wednesday night after over four years in charge of the side.
"I did not expect such an extreme situation but it looks like there was already some turbulence there and that was just the final straw," Wenger told Arsenal's official website. "I am sad that Capello leaves four months before such an important competition, it is a big blow for England and I am sad for him."
The Gunners face Sunderland in the Premier League this weekend.
