Tottenham fans frustrated as rivals sign star – ‘Depressing’, ‘pathetic’

Add to this the player’s acrimonious exit from Schalke and Tottenham may have been put off by the German’s attitude.

However, with Meyer clearly an able player and available for free, some Spurs fans have taken to Twitter to bemoan the club not looking into signing him.

With doubts over Mousa Dembele’s future and strength in depth an issue, the Tottenham supporters are frustrated by the lack of business – and voiced their concerns after Meyer was confirmed as a Palace player.

Just looking into the Meyer deal, says in multiple reports he's on 170k.

That might explain it, can't have him on more than the chosen one Sissoko.

If you read up on him you’ll soon realise that Max Meyer is the German Wilshere.

“There’s a suspicion that bigger Premier League clubs – Arsenal and Liverpool were both linked with moves – were put off by questions marks surrounding Meyer's character. “

But I’m aware that his agent hyped him up way too much.

#THFC Meyer deal has cost £16.6m over 4 years for Palace based on his wages. Great deal…players have been available all summer, we just simply ain’t in the market. Quiet clear really.

I see what you're saying, but sometimes players need the right tutelage. #DeleAlli rising to prominance is a fine example of what working under #Pochettino can do. #Meyer could of been the next breakthrough act. #COYS #THFC

Amazing that Max Meyer signs on a free with Palace. Seemed to be a great fit on many levels and at 22 provided depth and youth.

Max Meyer is on 170k a week. I see why spurs didn’t go for him now. But tbh palace can easily sell him next summer for £20 mill plus anyhow

Spurs have been negotiating, in discussion, preparing a bid, blah blah blah for Grealish the last month. Palace approach Meyer and signed him within 48 hours. Spurs are supposed to be the bigger club.
Pathetic!
