LONDON — Fabio Capello's last news conference in South Africa mirrored England's World Cup debacle — it was too short and difficult to understand.

While I predicted a Germany win, no one foresaw the humiliation and embarrassment of the 4-1 defeat. Just about the only good news for England is that there were no positive drug tests.

Capello is perceived as a dead man walking . . . walking all the way to his bank with a big fat check for around £5 million in compensation.
