Myers signed his first professional contract in July 1991 and despite injury trouble and never featuring regularly, he would play for a further eight seasons as a professional for Chelsea and was a member of the 1996–97 FA Cup and 1997–98 UEFA Cup Winners' Cup-winning teams. After being made available for transfer, Myers departed Stamford Bridge in July 1999 and made 106 appearances and scored two goals for the club.

He then became the starting left back, but lost his place in the team to Lee Sharpe in October, due to suspension and illness. Myers returned to the team in November 1999 and featured regularly until mid-January 2000, when he suffered a groin injury. After returning to fitness, he joined First Division strugglers Portsmouth on loan until the end of the season. He made eight appearances and helped Pompey finish clear of the relegation places. Myers began the 2000–01 season as a regular, making four appearances in…

In 2011, he returned to Chelsea as U15 head coach and became assistant to U21 and U19 head coach Dermot Drummy in 2012. He spent the 2016–17 season as an assistant first team coach at Vitesse, before returning to Chelsea to take up the role as Development Squad head coach Joe Edwards' assistant. On 6 July 2018, it was announced that Myers had been appointed Chelsea U18 manager and one year later, he was promoted into the role of Development Squad head coach.
