Bow: I'll Welcome Back Dyer

Bowyer and Dyer were involved in an on-the-pitch spat whilst both playing for Newcastle but Bowyer - whose time back at Upton Park has been refreshingly without the kind of behaviour for which he is infamously known - says it's all in the past.

"We're fine now," the Hammers midfielder told the Daily Telegraph.

''Back then when it happened, it was just a crazy moment but I honestly don't have any worries about it at all now.

''Admittedly, when I was younger I made many mistakes but now I'm older, I just want to keep myself to myself."

And Lee highlighted the quality he thought Dyer could bring to Upton Park:

"He's a great player, another international, and I think that if he comes to West Ham the competition he would bring would be very good for the squad. He can play anywhere across the middle and as a striker, so why not go for him? Let's wait and see what happens."
