Up front we have a few world - class players surrounded by some serious pretenders... Sanchez is by far the most accomplished player in our attack but the controversy surrounding his contractual mishandling could see him go before the window closes or most definitely by season's
end... obviously a mistake by both parties involved, as Sanchez's exploits have never been more on display than in North London, but the club's irresponsible wage structure and lack
of real intent have been the real undoing in this mess... Lacazette, who I think has some world - class skills as a front man, will only be as good as the players and system around him, which is troubling due
to our current roster and Wenger's love
of sideways passing... Walcott should have been sold years ago, enough said, and Welbeck should never have been brought in from the
get - go... both
of these players have suffered numerous injuries over their respective careers and neither are good enough
to overcome such difficulties: not
to mention, they both are below average first - touch players, which should be the baseline test for any player coming
to a Wenger - led Arsenal team... Perez should have been played wide left or never purchased at all; what a huge waste
of time and money, which is ridiculous considering our penny pinching ways and the fact that fans had been clamoring for a real striker for years... finally Giroud, the fact that he stills wears the jersey is a direct indictment
of this club's failure
to get things right... this isn't necessarily an attack on Giroud because I think he has some highly valued skills, but not for a team that has struggled
to take their sideways soccer
to the next
level, as his presence slows their game even more, combined
with our average, at best, finishing skills... far too often those in charge have either settled or chosen half - measures and ultimately it is us that suffer because no matter what happens Wenger, Gazidis and Kroenke will always make more money whereas we will always be the ones paying for their mistakes... so every time someone suggests we should just shut - up and support the team just think
of all the sacrifices you've made along the way and simply reply... f *** off
3 League titles / 6 Fa cups and constant champions league last 16odd years out
of 19 also but no matter what anyone says his time as our coach has come
to an
end even if we win the league which in fairness we have a great shot so going out
of Europe could help us win the league for Wenger
to leave on a high like fergie did... This has
to be his last season in charge along
with Stan the Conman... Money needs put into this squad
to get it
to the next
level and a different direction because in all honesty when we beat Bayern they just did nt take their chances like they did last night and they already had a great squad and added
to it in the summer
with Costa etc... we had a real chance this year if we had brought in more than Cech and that is Wengers fault!
But i'm more concerned by the the
end comment «Lehmann will not let anyone hide or

of relevance that negative occurring on arsene wengers watch... interesting...
That's just a little bit
of pressure
to deal
with, considering how close they
got a year ago, that Kershaw is now finally going
to be in his 30s and can opt - out at year's
end, and knowing that veterans like Rich Hill and Justin Turner can't play at their current
levels forever (especially considering Turner's broken wrist).
Nothing like one underachiever blowing smoke up the ass
of another... we know that Ozil has some incredible technical gifts, but
to be considered the best you have
to bring more than just assists
to the table... for me, a top player has
to possess a more well - rounded game, which doesn't mean they need
to be a beast on both
ends of the pitch, but they must have the ability
to take their game
to another
level when it matters most... although he amassed some record - like stats early on, it set the bar too high, so when people expected him
to duplicate those numbers each year the pressure seemed
to get the best
of our soft - spoken star... obviously that's not an excuse for what has happened in the meantime, but it's important
to make note
of a few things: (1) his best year was a transition year for many
of the traditionally dominant teams in the EPL, so that clearly made the numbers appear better than they actually were and (2) Wenger's system, or lack thereof, didn't do him any favours; by playing him out
of position and by not acquiring world - class striker and / or right - side forward that would best fit an Ozil - centered offensive scheme certainly hurt his chances
to repeat his earlier peformances, (3) the loss
of Cazorla, who took a lot
of pressure off Ozil in the midfield and was highly efficient when it came
to getting him the ball in space, negatively impacted his effectiveness and (4) he likewise missed a good chunk
of games and frankly never looked himself when he eventually returned
to the field... overall the Ozil experiment has had mixed reviews and rightfully so, but I do have some empathy for the man because he has always carried himself the same way, whether for Real or the German National team, yet he has only suffered any lengthy down periods
with Arsenal...
to me that goes directly
to this club's inability
to surround him
with the necessary players
to succeed, especially for someone who is a pass first type
of player; as such, this simply highlights our club's ineffective and antiquated transfer policies... frankly I'm disappointed in both Ozil and our management team for not stepping up when it counted because they had a chance
to do something special, but they didn't have it in them... there is no one that better exemplifies our recent history than Ozil, brief moments
of greatness undercut by long periods
of disappointing play, only made worse by his mopey posturing like a younger slightly less awkward Wenger... what a terribly waste
Yeah and look how he is treating US FANS at the
end of his career.He just doesn't care.This is an intelligent man.He knows he no longer has the ability
to Manage a top
level Football Club.His tired and outdated methods have left us trailing the very clubs we used
to dominate.Wenger has left us 5 years behind these Clubs.The younger modern manager know how
to get results.Even against each other.Wenger can't even
get a result away from home against teams in the relegation area.These teams used
to FEAR playing us.Now they look forward
to it.They know we will be playing
with the same old tactics
with plenty
of the ball that
gets us nowhere.No spine
to the side.No passion in the side.No confidence from the players in the Manager.He should have been replaced 7 years ago

i would love nothing more than we
get a forward thinking manager in at the
end of season pep klopp etc or however can take us
to the next
level, i just realistically accept the present problem at the moment and just hope we can maneuver our way around it until
end of season, i want nothing more than that we not just compete but run the league for years
to come and am fully aware this may or may not happen under wenger as long as we win something big and take our place among the big 4 European clubs
with a manager that wants
to make a name for himself
with us.

with the cars track performance package a lot
of those changes happen underneath the sheet metal but one
of the big differences that is immediately obvious is this giant carbon fiber wing now the way this thing is mounted is actually into the structure
of the vehicle and it makes you know loading the rear hatch a bit more difficult but we're assuming that's okay if you're looking for the track performance this thing delivers also giving you that performance are these Michelin Pilot Sport cup tires which are basically track oriented tires that you can drive on the street but as we wake our way
to the front
of the thing what really matters is what's under the hood that's right there's actually a hole in the hood
of this thing and that's because this engine is so tall it's tall because it has a larger supercharger and a bunch
of added cooling on it
to help it you know keep at the right temperature the supercharger is way larger than the one on the zo six and it has a more cooling capacity and the downside is it's taller so it pops literally through the hood the cool thing is from the top you can actually see this shake when you're looking at it from you know a camera from the top
of the vehicle this all makes for 755 horsepower making this the most powerful Corvette ever now what's important about that is this not just the power but likewise everything in the car has
to be built
to accommodate and be able
to drive
to the
level of speed this thing can develop that's why you had the massive cooling so I had the aerodynamics and that's why I had the electronic sophistication inside [Applause] we had a lot
of time
to take this car on the track yesterday and I've had the night
to think about things Matt today two crews on the road and see how this extreme performance machine deals
with the sort of more civil minded stuff of street driving the track impressions remain this thing is unquestionably one of the most capable cars you can get from a dealer these days a lot of that's besides the point now because we're on the street we have speed limits they have the ever - present threat of law enforcement around every corner so the question is what does this car feel like in public when you slow this car down it feels like a more powerful Corvette you don't get much tram lining from these big wheels though we as the front end doesn't want to follow grooves in the pavement it is louder it is a little firmer but it's certainly livable on a day to day basis that's surprising for a vehicle of this capability normally these track oriented cars are so hardcore that you wouldn't want to drive them to the racetrack but let's face it you spend more time driving to the track than you do on the track and the fact that this thing works well in both disciplines is really impressive I can also dial everything back and cruise and not feel like I'm getting punished for driving a hardcore track machine that's a that's a really nice accomplishment that's something that you won't find in cars that are this fast and costs maybe double this much the engine in this car dominates the entire experience you can't miss the engine and the whole friend this car is sort of a shrine to it the way it pops out of the hood the way it's covered with coolers around the sides it is the experience of this car and that does make driving this thing special and also the fact that it doesn't look half bad either in fact I think it has some of the coolest looking wheels currently available on a new car this car as we mentioned this car has the track package the track package on this car gives you what they call competition bucket seats which are a little wide for my tastes but I'm you know not the widest person in the world this automatic transmission works well I mean there's so much torque again out of this engine that it can be very smooth and almost imperceptible its clunky on occasion I think I'd might opt for the manual although Chevy tells me about 80 % of its customers will go for the automatic I don't think they're gonna be disappointed and that's gonna be the faster transmission drag strip on the street - and on the racetrack man it was a little bit more satisfying to my taste though we've talked about the exhaust I have it set in the track setting let's quiet it down a little bit so you can hear the difference now I've set that separately from everything else so let's put it stealth what happened to the engine sound that's pretty that's pretty amazing man stealth is really stealth and then go back to track Wow actually a really big difference that's that's pretty great the Corvette has always been a strong value proposition and nowhere is that more evident than this zr1 giving you a nearly unbeatable track performance per dollar now the nice thing is on the road this doesn't feel like a ragged edge track machine either you could genuinely drive it every day the compromises are few and that's what makes this car so special if you like what you see keep it tuned right here and be sure to visit Edmunds.com [Mu

get much tram lining from these big wheels though we as the front
end doesn't want
to follow grooves in the pavement it is louder it is a little firmer but it's certainly livable on a day
to day basis that's surprising for a vehicle
of this capability normally these track oriented cars are so hardcore that you wouldn't want
to drive them
to the racetrack but let's face it you spend more time driving
to the track than you do on the track and the fact that this thing works well in both disciplines is really impressive I can also dial everything back and cruise and not feel like I'm
getting punished for driving a hardcore track machine that's a that's a really nice accomplishment that's something that you won't find in cars that are this fast and costs maybe double this much the engine in this car dominates the entire experience you can't miss the engine and the whole friend this car is sort
of a shrine
to it the way it pops out
of the hood the way it's covered
with coolers around the sides it is the experience of this car and that does make driving this thing special and also the fact that it doesn't look half bad either in fact I think it has some of the coolest looking wheels currently available on a new car this car as we mentioned this car has the track package the track package on this car gives you what they call competition bucket seats which are a little wide for my tastes but I'm you know not the widest person in the world this automatic transmission works well I mean there's so much torque again out of this engine that it can be very smooth and almost imperceptible its clunky on occasion I think I'd might opt for the manual although Chevy tells me about 80 % of its customers will go for the automatic I don't think they're gonna be disappointed and that's gonna be the faster transmission drag strip on the street - and on the racetrack man it was a little bit more satisfying to my taste though we've talked about the exhaust I have it set in the track setting let's quiet it down a little bit so you can hear the difference now I've set that separately from everything else so let's put it stealth what happened to the engine sound that's pretty that's pretty amazing man stealth is really stealth and then go back to track Wow actually a really big difference that's that's pretty great the Corvette has always been a strong value proposition and nowhere is that more evident than this zr1 giving you a nearly unbeatable track performance per dollar now the nice thing is on the road this doesn't feel like a ragged edge track machine either you could genuinely drive it every day the compromises are few and that's what makes this car so special if you like what you see keep it tuned right here and be sure to visit Edmunds.com [Mu

of this engine that it can be very smooth and almost imperceptible its clunky on occasion I think I'd might opt for the manual although Chevy tells me about 80 %
of its customers will go for the automatic I don't think they're gonna be disappointed and that's gonna be the faster transmission drag strip on the street - and on the racetrack man it was a little bit more satisfying
to my taste though we've talked about the exhaust I have it set in the track setting let's quiet it down a little bit so you can hear the difference now I've set that separately from everything else so let's put it stealth what happened
to the engine sound that's pretty that's pretty amazing man stealth is really stealth and then go back

- as Captain Olimar is making his way home, an asteroid onslaught forces him
to land on a nearby planet - Sparklium is the fuel for Olimar's Dolphin III ship -
with the ship's fuel depleted, you have
to find items on this planet which can be turned into fuel - collect everything from seeds
to large scale treasures - you need 30,000 Sparklium
to make your way home - you are eventually required
to find a lost ship part at the
end of the game -
levels are more linear and puzzle based, and include specific goals / goodies
to collect - move Captain Olimar
with the Circle Pad, while all other interactions use the touchscreen - blow your whistle, throw Pikmin and also touch certain objects - worlds are called Sectors,
with six areas altogether - find all the treasure and look for new passageways
to complete a sector 100 % - passageways can grant you access
to secret spots or additional
levels highlighted
with the letter X - the first world is called Brilliant Garden, which has lush forest environments - Yellow Pikmin can easily reach the upper screen, where you can sometimes collect goodies and pull down vines - there's a
level where you use yellow Pikmin as a source
to connect two wires - connecting the wires lets you see enemies and platforms that were hidden in the shadows - Winged Pikmin can be flung at high speeds, and they can pick up Olimar and help him descend down into new areas - in a later
level, you need
to use red Pikmin
to stomp out fire and clear the way for you - Rock Pikmin are the strongest ones
of the bunch and can break crystals - blue Pikmin can swim and fight well underwater - the maximum amount
of Pikmin you can have in a stage is 20 - blow your whistle
to call over the correct Pikmin for a task or puzzle - Ravaged Rustworks offers a unique industrial environment where you climb on pipes - Loney Tower has you climbing
to the top
of a tower without any help
of Pikmin, and instead use pipes and Olimar's jetpack - Valley
of the Breeze, found in the Leafswirl Lagoon sector, relies complete on Winged Pikmin - Barriers
of Flame is in the Sweltering Parchlands sector - here you «lll be forced
to improvise
with Yellow and Rock Pikmin
to get around fire - every world
ends with a boss stage - one boss fight puts you up against a Fiery Blowhog, where you use Red Pikmin
to pick up / feed bombs
to the boss - beating bosses gives you treasures worth 1,000 Sparklium each - supports amiibo in the Splatoon, Super Mario and Animal Crossing lines - amiibo can be scanned in
to grant you access
to secret spots - these are one room puzzle challenges where you collect a statue - these bonus rooms will also

get matched up
with players who are at or around your skill
level, but my early experiences
with the game
ended up reminding me that while I think the competitive multiplayer in Gears is well - designed and exciting, playing it against people who play a lot
of it is frustrating in an «I guess I'll just turn this off now» way, not a «Gee, I'm going
to strive
to get better so this stops happening» sort
of way.
-- Nintendo previously made Zelda games by making small areas and connecting them together — For Breath
of the Wild, the team first had
to figure out what needed
to be placed on the map — Groups were created out
of the over 300 devs
to work on specific sections
of the world — Game Informer's demo starts at Serenne Stable — Yammo runs this place — Link can rest in bed and restore health here — Stable also lets you store horses, meet
with merchants, NPCs — Stables are located throughout the world — Each one is run by a distinct character — You can spend rupees on a more expensive bed, giving you an extra heart the next morning — These hearts are yellow and can't be recovered if you're hit in combat — Spending time by fires in the world passes time — Dynamic weather system in the game,
with the world reacting as a result — Ex: when it starts raining, NPCs outside the stable quickly go inside — Beedle is back
to sell you goods — Have
to be careful during a thunderstorm, since your metal items can attract thunder — Metal weapons and shields can be discarded or thrown at enemies — Link can
get killed by lightning — Difficulty dips / spikes depending on where you are, since you can go around it and avoid it until you're stronger — Over 100 Shrines — You can find an item that identifies Shrines — Discover a Shrine for it
to be a fast - travel point — Shrines also give a Spirit Orb — Trade in orbs for unknown items — Dedicated team handled animal A.I. — Bears, wolves, deer move through the snow — You can
get overwhelmed by enemies quickly — Link can keep multiple horses at a time — Affection / loyalty important

of horses
to raise their stats — Can call horses over
to you, but horses need
to be within a certain proximity
to be called — Horses can be killed by enemies — Aonuma «wanted players
to choose their own path», so no companion character in this game — Stamina meter encopasses sprinting, paragliding, climbing — Meter can be upgraded, but Nintendo won't say how — Different shields have different speeds and
level of control for snowboarding — Can mine rocks which can be solid for rupees or used for crafting — Can place stamps
to mark areas
of interest — 100
of these symbols can be used on the map, including sword, shield, bow and arrow, pot, star, chest, skull, leaf, diamond — Every style
of weapon has a unique set
of animations and feel different — No invincible weapons in the game, Nintendo says — Zelda can
get mad at you and scold you — Players can see the
ending without seeing everything from the story — A certain element was added in the game
to make for a more cohesive storyline — Most difficult Zelda game
to make — Aonuma is still finding new things in the world
Creatures When dropping Toki in a nest, birds now have a «cooldown», so they won't instantly pick you up again when walking out
of the nest Birds don't stop anymore when they sense vibration, making them less annoying when accidentically stomping near them No more random sorting
of creatures: they all appear on their assigned depth value, preventing smaller creatures from sometimes
getting lost behind bigger creatures Fixed the «spawning multiple camera birds» bug Slug corpses can't kill anymore, so no more accidentally walking into them and dying Bugs When stomped, berrybugs and copybugs now always hop the same distance (3 tiles), making their behavior more predictible Berrybugs now briefly stop if they detect an edge above their heads while walking on the floor, making it easier
to stomp them onto a wall Copybugs and berrybugs
get stunned when they're in the trajectory
of a
to be spawned bubble, so they can't hop / roll away before bubble is spawned Glowy berrybugs now use the same turn animation as normal berrybugs, so no more faster glow bugs Frogs and bubbles Bubbles now prioritize Toki Tori over other entities, so no more accidental berrybug ballooning Added a small delay before catching an entity in a bubble
to allow for catching Toki Tori, even if he's a little further away than an entity Added possibility
to queue a «turn by whistle» while the frog is running towards a berrybug, so you don't have
to wait before being able
to let the frog face the desired direction Fixed a problem where a fat frog won't belch anymore Achievements In - menu achievements system, including progress achievements Added a number
of new achievements Tokidex completion is now a progress achievement (you can see how far along you are) Fixed the Fried Chicken achievement, so it's less hard
to get All electrocuted entities now count for the X-Ray Enthusiast achievement Menu Completely new, streamlined and fast
to access menu system Ability
to set language from menu New font Graphics Improved presentation
of telepathic Ancient Frog messages, fixed a problem where sometimes they'd spawn multiple times Fixed black flickering when buttonbashing during fades and
level transitions Screenfades are now 100 % black Added button prompts
to the first time you need
to use whistle and stomp Areas and puzzles Added l - ife area for Ife < 3 Added an extra landing stone in the wasteland area Added more snow globes: — RRB - Water mountain approach: berrybug in the «pro» puzzle can no longer be lost Water mountain top: frog for Ancient Frog puzzle now starts bloated, added light
to make «pro» puzzle easier
to execute Shaft top: Small tweak
to make sure berrybug isn't killed by the slugs midway through the
level Water cave: made the light shaft where you need
to whistle the hermit crab a bit wider, created hole for frogs at
end of level to prevent them from falling down, made some «pro» puzzles a bit more forgiving Dark forest: lowered warp when entering dark area, so it's easier
to travel up
with a bubble Lava cave: improved bat puzzle Meadow: made some pro puzzles less difficult Hideout: removed alternative solution for Ancient Frog puzzle Descent: made it easier
to pick up fat frog at beginning

get much simpler than Bounce Rescue, as other than navigating a lovely little blob from one

, being part
of the military gives me the ample canon for a faction I otherwise was fascinated
with but never
got to talk

level of play I expected
of myself.
