| With the European transfer window opening up again on January 1, TSN. Dalton Pompey Jersey .ca takes a daily look around the soccer world at the latest rumours and reports heading into what is sure to be another busy period of transactions. Welcome Mats? Manchester City is the latest team to be linked to Borussia Dortmund defender Mats Hummels. The German international is a wanted man in the BPL and the Daily Express reports that the defending champions are looking to the 25-year-old to help assuage issues in the back. City captain Vincent Kompany picked up an apparent hamstring injury during Saturdays 1-0 victory over Leicester City, while Matija Nastasic could be in line to link up with former manager Roberto Mancini at Inter. Hummels wont come cheap, though, with reports that Dortmund, struggling mightily in the Bundesliga this season and currenly 16th in the the table, have placed a ￡47 million price tag on the defender. Arsenal, still without Mathieu Debuchy, Laurent Koscielny and Nacho Monreal, and Manchester United, decimated with injuries to their defence, have also been linked to Hummels in recent months. Adding Adnan? With minutes becoming scarce at Old Trafford, Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal is reportedly interested in sending teenage winger Adnan Januzaj out on loan so that the Belgian international can get in some more first-team playing time. The Daily Star reports that Inters Roberto Mancini is interested in bringing in an attacking player in January and Januzaj could fit the bill. Januzajs former manager, David Moyes, is also reportedly keen on bringing Januzaj to play under him again at Real Sociedad. Januzaj, who made his international bow with Belgium in the lead-up to last summers World Cup, has made only nine league appearances for United this season and has yet to score. In 27 league games last year, Januzaj scored four times. An American in Germany? Werder Bremen is desperate to kickstart its offence and is reportedly looking at Sunderlands American international Jozy Altidore for help. According to the Sunderland Echo, the Bundesliga basement-dwellers are sounding out a move for the 24-year-old, despite the fact that Altidore, himself, is almost as goal-starved as Bremen is. Recently returning to manager Gustavo Poyets first-choice starting XI after a spell relegated to the periphery, including in Saturdays 1-1 draw with West Ham, Altidore hasnt found the score sheet for the Black Cats in over a year. Even with Altidores poor form, Bremen might not be Altidores only suitor. Ligue 1 side Lille is also reportedly interested in his services. It is believed that Sunderland values the player in the ￡7 million range. Justin Smoak Jersey . He chirped to the caddie of Brandt Snedeker about their money game, a Mickelson tradition at the majors. Lefty was in good spirits Monday at the British Open, except for having to return the claret jug. Devon Travis Jersey . DeGrom outpitched Jake Peavy in a tantalizing hitless duel that carried into the seventh inning Saturday night before the New York Mets broke loose and beat the San Francisco Giants 4-2. http://www.authenticbluejayspro.com/blue-jays-roger-clemens-jersey/ . Marc-Andre Fleury made 27 saves to backstop the Penguins to a 2-1 victory over the Flames, handing Calgary its team record sixth consecutive home regulation loss. The man in charge of the NCAA selection committee insists a win in November is worth the same as a win in March. Dont believe him? Check out the seeds slapped beside these conference champions: --A 4 for Louisville of the American Athletic. --A 4 for Michigan State of the Big Ten. --Yet another 4 for UCLA of the Pac-12. --A 7 for New Mexico of the Mountain West. Oh, and dont forget that 8 for Kentucky, which had the ball and a chance to beat Florida, the NCAA tournaments top overall seed, in the waning seconds of the SEC title game. Only Virginia, which wrapped up the ACC tournament Sunday to back up its regular-season title, seemed to get a significant bump from the conference tournaments that polish off resumes of teams before the start of Americas favourite office pool -- March Madness. Ron Wellman, chair of the NCAA selection committee, said the Cavaliers, considered a 2 or 3 on most mock-ups, "continued to impress us throughout the year." Asked to explain the mediocre seed for a team like Louisville, the defending national champion that has won 12 of 13 and rolled through the AAC tournament, Wellstone explained the committee looks at the entire resume, not just March. "We look at the total body of work, everything they did from November to March," he said. "Every time we scrubbed that seed, Louisville ended at the same place every time when compared to the people above them." The people above them in the Midwest region, which shapes up as the toughest, include top-seeded and undefeated Wichita State, No. 2 Michigan and No. 3 Duke. Yes, thats three of last years Final Four teams. The national semifinals are April 5 in Arlington, Texas. On the 1 line in the West was Arizona, which stayed there despite falling in the Pac-12 title game to UCLA. The Bruins are a 4, same as Michigan State and Louisville -- their fellow power-conference champions. "They pass everyones eye test," Wellman said. "Theyre playing as well right now as anyone in the country. If you look at the last three or four weeks, they probably wouldve been seeded differently. When you look at the entire season, then its a little bit different." Of course, the numbers are just that -- numbers. In an era of one-and-done, superstar coaches and unending parity, the real drama starts after the brackets are out. Thats why Warren Buffett had no problem paying the insurance premium against a $1 billion payoff for anyone who fills out a perfect bracket. "Theres more good teams and less great teams," said coach Bill Self of second-seeded Kaansas. J.A. Happ Jersey. "The difference between a 2 seed and a 7 or 8 seed is as narrow as its ever been." The last four bubble teams in this years draw were 12th-seeded North Carolina State and Xavier, who play in the First Four on Tuesday, and 11th-seeded Iowa and Tennessee, who play Wednesday. Left out of the tournament was SMU of the AAC -- a team almost all the experts had securely in the bracket. But not the folks in the conference room, who couldnt overcome the Mustangs strength of schedule: 129. "When I saw Louisville, I kind of figured that they didnt have a lot of respect for our conference," said coach Larry Brown. "But we only can blame ourselves, thats the way I look at it." The committee handed out only seven at-large bids to mid-majors after they took 11 in each of the last two seasons. The Big 12 led all conferences with seven teams, though winning the conference didnt move Iowa State past the 3 line. Other conference titles that didnt change much: --St. Joes was the champion of the six-bid Atlantic-10 and got a 10 seed while the team the Hawks beat, VCU, was seeded fifth. --Providence went from the bubble to Big East champion and was seeded 11th. Meanwhile, Kansas lost in the semifinals of the Big 12 but remained a 2 seed because of its ranking in the RPI -- No. 3. The Jayhawks have to get through the first weekend without centre Joel Embiid, out with a back injury, but could face a third-round game against Mountain West champs New Mexico. "Off the top of my head, I cant remember exactly what the conversation was about New Mexico," Wellman said. "I can tell you the conversations about New Mexico were very positive." In the West, Arizonas second game could come against eighth-seeded Gonzaga, which lost its second game as a No. 1 seed last year, or No. 9 Oklahoma State, which has one of the nations best players in Marcus Smart. The nations top scorer, Doug McDermott (26.9 points per game), is on the other side of that bracket with No. 3 Creighton. On Virginias side of the East bracket is one team nobody wants to play come tournament time -- No. 4 Michigan State, which hadnt won back-to-back games since late January, but strung three together to win the nations second-toughest conference. "You dont get many teams that are talented, have inside and outside, show toughness, are together, have great chemistry," coach Tom Izzo said. "Ive said three times in my career that I thought we were good enough to get to a Final Four. I thought this team was next in line."
