Make no mistake about it, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has created a buzz amongst Gooners that is only comparable with Charlie Sheen mangled on Tigerblood.
The boy has burst onto the scene in explosive fashion since making his first league start for Arsenal against Manchester United last month.

Today, everything changed. The Union traded Le Toux to the Vancouver Whitecaps, where he'll play alongside Eric Hassli. Eric FUCKING Hassli. Though also French, Hassli earned three red cards in his debut MLS season. Remember when Woody and Buzz ended up in Sid's hands?

The buzz surrounding the Spanish Burgos province these days has been remarkable. They are of course, home to Mirandes, the Spanish third-division team that have made it to the semi-finals of the Copa del Ray! Mirandes will meet Athletic Bilbao tonight at their modest 6,000-seater stadium, which was expanded yesterday to accommodate another 1,700 visiting fans.

QPR created the most buzz this transfer window completing the transfer of Nancy's highly rated midfielder Samba Diakite for a reported £3.36m. They added Nedum Onuoha from City and Taye Taiwo on loan from Milan to bolster the defense.

Dateline 22 January 2012, this date will go down in history, it is the date the fans at the Emirates turned on Arsene Wenger.

The fans booed the team off at half-time and were rewarded when youngster Nico Yennaris replaced the hapless and hopeless Djourou who becomes a bigger liability every time he puts on an Arsenal shirt.

Amidst all of the buzz surrounding Carlos Tevez and his possible arrival in Milan, Inter have slowly continued their climb towards the upper echelon of the Serie A table. The Nerazzurri have won five consecutive league matches over the past month, outscoring their opponents by a 13-1 mark during that period.

A drunk fan decided that the best way to utilize his buzz during the Dutch Cup clash between AZ and Ajax was to attack AZ's keeper Esteban Alvarado because...well, he was drunk. So the keeper defended himself, then attacked the intruder with his boots and boiling anger. Understandably. However, the referee decided he should then send off Alvarado, which then prompted AZ to walk off the pitch.

L'Impact Montréal, we love you and your Muppets

Over in Quebec (and the whole of North America), the Montréal Impact are starting to create a steady buzz in the football community as they get ready to join MLS. I wrote a piece for The Football Ramble on the unique challenges facing L'Impact.

There's a buzz about the NBA's Timberwolves that Minnesotan's have not seen for years. The reason? The T-Wolves finally landed young Spanish basketball star Ricky Rubio who they had drafted in 2009 but were not able to land for contractual reasons. The Barcelona native has been playing for a team we soccer supporters all know [.

I don't know what the tiredness equivalent of what *boilk* is but I've got that this morning.

Plus a touch of actual *boilk* too but not enough to actually make me *boilk*. Last night at The Tollington we launched the book So Paddy got up an Arsenal anthology, and first and foremost I want to thank all the people who came along, bought a book and had a beer or two.

We did a double take at the Mourinho doppelgänger to Sergio's right.

Ask us to tell you about a Davis Cup and we can't. What we can speak with authority on is Sergio Ramos, stereotypes and his tucked-in salmon button shirt.

For an entire year we filed him under our "those guys" grouping.

The YNT Blog isn't the type to poke fun at people's misery but man, this one was too good to pass up.

Eduardo Vargas is just 22-years-old but he's already on his way to a possible South American Footballer of the Year award.

That's created quite a bit of buzz for the Universidad de Chile winger, who could be scooped up in January by AC Milan, Arsenal, Inter or Liverpool.

His agent Diego Cativa identifed those teams when talking to supervaso.

Editor's note: At the end of the 2010 season, we posted a series of "Raves" about our favorite Philadelphia players. They need not be the team's best players, but they're guys and gals we like. Over the next two weeks, we continue the series again with some of the PSP writers' and contributors' favorite players of 2011.

This picture, taken on the Brooklyn Bridge on November 17th by Mother Jones reporter Josh Harkinson, is one of thousands of images generated by the Occupy Wall Street movement.

Career change A Czech porn star is set to make the move to football by starting her own football club. Klarisa Leone, aged 32, implausibly intends to name the new team Inter Prague in honour of her favourite club (as indicated by the image above). She told The Sun: "I've loved my career in porn [...]

It's getting to be the end of the year, which means the buzz starts for year end awards, including the Sports Illustrated Sportsman of the Year (or Sportswoman as the case may be).
(Editor's Note: The U.S. Women's World Cup Team won the prestigious award in 1999 and surely had the USA won the Women's World Cup, this year's squad would have been in the conversation).

Adam: There's a buzz

Charlie Adam believes Liverpool's seven-game unbeaten run is typical of the confidence within the squad but insists no-one within the dressing room will be underestimating Swansea City this afternoon.

Playoff tickets are now on sale!

Kerith Gabriel reports in the Daily News that Faryd Mondragon, who is a finalist for Soccer America's Goalkeeper of the Year, will start against Toronto. "I am not used to being out, so it felt like forever," Mondragon said.

I saw this quote over on Buzz's site (3rdDegree.net) about the whole Brek Shea rumor situation. I'm like most down here in Dallas that cover the team, you know Shea will get sold eventually to a club overseas but it won't be anytime in the immediate future. Yes, he's doing well on the National team level, which only drives his price up more.

Club vs. Country? There's only one winner!

Another set of internationals means yet another two-week break in Premier League action. Isn't it about time something was changed in the International set-up? International Breaks – I hate them. As the press get over-excited about England playing the might of Montenegro or Scotland travelling to face those footballing-giants Liechtenstein, for me, it hardly merits a look.

The Daily Mail reckons Chicago Fire are trying to sign Rio.

The Telegraph talks about Welbeck's "big buzz".

The Chelsea Blog is standing up against CFC and their proposed stadium plans.

"RoM Reads" was originally published at The Republik of Mancunia.

Ozzie Guillen is managing his last game on Monday for the Chicago White Sox, according to various online reports. Once separated from the White Sox, Guillen is expected to become the manager of the Florida Marlins. Who will coach the White Sox in their final two regular seasons game is not known at this point.

Match reports can be so simplistic. Often, there is little room if any at all for the finer details of a game and even though the intention is to give the reader a good idea of what took place during the 90 minutes, in reality it barely tells half the story. Normally, it's limited to telling you who scored and how, describing a goalscoring chance or a contentious refereeing decision.
