Max Meyer: I'll play where needed for Crystal Palace

Max Meyer felt his denied goal should've stood in Crystal Palace's 1-1 draw at Southampton.

But the German midfielder revealed he had a feeling that VAR would disallow his effort against the Saints.

Speaking with Palace TV post-match, Palace's No.7 said: "[I was] very disappointed. I had a feeling when I scored the goal that the referee would check and, yeah, it needed two minutes and I knew he'd take the goal away. I'm frustrated."

Discussing his new role on the right of Palace's midfield in the heat of an injury crisis, Meyer said that while he was not used to occupying such a position, he is determined to work hard for the team and perform to his utmost wherever he plays.

He said: "[It's] unusual for me. It's the first time I've played on the right-wing. I've never played there before and I tried to give my best for the team. I know it's not my favourite position but I tried to give my best and I think four points from two games is good for us."
