Unfortunately I believe he disqualified himself from being a competent owner by accepting Kenwrights tainted condition of retaining his presence within the club. No savvy aspiring club owner is accepting that deal. Like nobody is buying a restaurant so the previous owner can sit in the bar , drink free alcohol and dispense advice on the industry, so why would you do it with a multi million football club? Just highlights his glaring naivete. Kenwright sabotaged the process for his own ego. Not say if kenwright didn't anchor himself to club the new owners would have us winning trophies but I feel they're would be a greater chance of them possessing or attaining people who hold football acumen which moshiri has clearly bungled.

The big issue with Everton for the last 20 years has been that we're too nice, we haven't got that final gear to push on and be successful.

Any business which is successful, or unsuccessful, they say the root of the issue normally comes from the top. Everything about the club has been wrong, and ended up making us "little old Everton", which given our historical history, is just damning of how well we've fell.

Kenwright is a big part of the problem, and it's not that he's a crook, but he's not a winner, he think's going a good job, when in reality he didn't at all. Look through the club, and we're riddled with players, coaches, and board members who've been a big part the downfall, from DBB, to Coleman to Unsworth, Ferguson, Jeffers (I know he left) and then to Kenwright. We're a boys club, and they need to look at it, tear it down, and eliminate the problems.

It all comes from the top, and if we want to be taken seriously, then we need to actually be serious and stop being timid, polite and accepting of mediocrity. I still think Moshiri's big downfall is that he didn't cut Kenwright out, but we're a long, long rebuild, restructuring and whatever else away, from actually gaining any form of identity.

Rightly or wrongly, no one fears us, no one respects us and our most barren spell of entire 142-year history is currently ongoing, with no real change imminent.

My own personal opinion is that there has been various voices in terms of recruitment, and this has led to a jumbled up approach. There has been no consistency even to the mistakes we made, and that suggests lots of different people are involved.

Moshiri takes ultimate responsibility as the owner. The minute he said that fab 4 comment then the alarm bells started ringing. That was a completely baffling comment and all we needed to know about his knowledge of football.

The funny thing is that if we went and sign e.g Antony (Ajax) for the right wing then the addition of one player Gray--Richarlison--DCL--Antony gives us a young, exciting "fab four".

Its a cringeworthy comment but the improvement from Tosun, Bolasie, Sigurdsson and Rooney would be enormous. Not only in ability but 'value'.
 

Nearly SIX years on and he hasn't made one right decision at the helm bar BMD (the jury is out on that aswell tbf).

Now, all of a sudden, he's decided to pull the plug and start praying for PL survival...sounds all too familiar.
