Ainsley Maitland-Niles has taken aim at former Lyon coach Fabio Grosso.

The former Arsenal midfielder struggled for minutes at OL before Grosso was sacked.

He told L'Equipe: "It wasn't new to me.

"He didn't know me as a person. He never asked me how I felt or what I wanted. I stayed quiet, I worked. He left before we had a conversation."

Maitland-Niles is now impressing under Grosso's replacement, Pierre Sage.
