Chelsea winger Victor Moses has claimed former Blues boss Jose Mourinho never spoke to him before being sacked as manager at Stamford Bridge.
Moses was frozen out of first-team action under Mourinho, who decided he had no part to play in his system despite an impressive start to life at the club.
The former Liverpool flier says that, other than a phone call while he was on loan with the Reds, the Special One did not make the effort to talk to him.
"He never spoke to me," Moses told ESPN FC. "I thought in my head, 'He's got his own players already.’
"I think we chatted a couple of times on the phone - he asked if I was alright at Liverpool [where Moses spent the 2013-14 season on loan], but that was it."

Moses is much happier under Antonio Conte and has been given an extended run in the first team by the Italian this season.
He has featured in seven Premier League games, starting twice, and has scored two goals in the top flight so far this term.
"The manager who is here now is giving everyone a chance - even the young lads," Moses added.
"I'm pleased that he's here and I've just got to go out there and enjoy my football. As long as you work hard, the manager will see it and he'll give you an opportunity.
"When the new manager came in, I just wanted to see how it went. It's a blessing for me that he enjoys the way I play and appreciates the effort I put in. It gives you a lot of confidence when the manager believes in you."
