Things aren’t really going to plan for Tyler Denton since leaving Leeds United on loan.

The 22-year-old left-back joined up with former Leeds boss Steve Evans at Peterborough United but the youngster has a long way to go before he makes a positive impression.

Evans has omitted Denton from his matchday squad in each of United’s last three League One outings, having been left out of yesterday’s 5-1 win at Plymouth.

His only start for Posh so far came in the Carabao Cup defeat by QPR and fans of the London Road club slated the Leeds prospect on Twitter afterwards.

However, the club’s chairman Darragh MacAnthony seems to be a fan and claims that Denton is ‘working hard’.

This is probably Denton’s last chance if he wants to succeed at Leeds. He has already endured a poor loan spell with Port Vale last term, meaning that another one wouldn’t exactly bode well for his chances of staying with the Whites next season and beyond.
