I think in Thomas's case it could be inflated ego or simply that the club keep floating the idea that he's worth such and such valuation.he won't be soon.
It's more than that even,the manager sensed something in the pipeline and was proved right, the fact SU speculated that we were going for it seems to be perfect trolling as far as I can see.
You'd have to assume that proved the team was behind him at that point, I think there's some friction here, speculating but I think the Fraser's moving on to other ventures has and is affecting things., still to sign the extension,Haji too?
I think that Southampton game you mentioned produced some real niggle around the club, something provoked that sending off and aftermath of the game, possibly the media treatment of us afterwards?
