"There was a lot of talk about the brats, the likes of me and Craig Bellamy, but he knew how to put us in our place," Dyer said. "He never lost the dressing room.
"We played Leeds at Elland Road once and Bellers was having a great game.
We were 1-0 up at half time and after about 60 minutes the manager put Craig's number up and Craig came off.
"We won the game 3-0 but when we got back to the changing room, Bellers was cursing and raving about how he did all the running, how everyone else profited from his efforts, how he needed goals, how he was judged on goals and so on and so on.
"The gaffer said 'will you shut up' but Bellers kept jabbering on. And then Sir Bobby went: 'I'll squash you, son, like an ant'.
"Bellers was a bit taken aback but he mumbled something else and this time the gaffer let him have it.
"Who are you?'" he said. "Ronaldo, Romario, Stoichkov, Hagi, Guardiola, Luis Enrique, Gascoigne. These are the people I deal with. Who are you?'
"The changing room went quiet and Bellers went quiet. And then Bellers looked over at me and said: 'He's got a point, hasn't he'."
