Youth career
Tyler is a left back who's been with Manchester United for over 11 years. Although most frequently seen in the full back position, he is able to cover at centre back and left wing. He's known for being pacey and extremely athletic, something that may have prompted his inclusion in the 2012 first team pre-season tour.
He started the 2013/14 season with Manchester United's Under-21 side but went on to have Championship experience, joining Blackpool on loan for two months from November, and then Birmingham City at the end of January for the rest of the season.
