Former Everton winger Pat Nevin says Everton's recent downfall can't only be blamed on their managers, of which none can be classed as a success.
He told BBC Radio 5 Live's Monday Night Club that Toffees fans think Frank Lampard had to go, but "there is something darker" going on at the club.
"It doesn’t come to where it is just now with a club like Everton overnight. It takes a long time for them to fall where they have fallen,2 said Nevin.
"A lot of fans think Frank had to go. He's not getting wins and if he’s not getting those points you are going to lose your job, there’s no doubt. But if you start looking a little bit further back - since 2016 and the managers they have had in - who really has been a success?
"For a team that would like to be in the top echelons of the league, I don’t think they are close to it and they haven’t been close to it for a long time. If they aren’t careful, it’s going to be a hell of a long time before they get back."
New York Times chief football correspondent Rory Smith added: "There is an identity issue with Everton. The basic issue that Everton have is that their history is a real burden for them becoming a modern club.
"Everton are chasing something they can’t quite catch and Moshiri doesn’t seem to be willing or able to put in place the sort of plan you need to try to close the gap on the top six."

Defeat at fellow strugglers West Ham on Saturday made it 10 without a win in all competitions for Lampard, leaving his job prospects hanging by a thread.
However, Edwards told the Transfer Gossip Daily podcast that dismissing Lampard was not the answer.
"They probably feel in the boardroom they have no choice but to sack the manager," he said.
"But their situation reminds me of Sunderland. They were stuck in a spiral of bringing in a high-profile manager to save them from relegation until eventually they went down.
"It does not matter what changes in the dugout. The toxicity of the situation, the lack of plan, the muddled appointment of managers - Everton are in a real mess.
"Unless they give someone the time to implement their blueprint, they will stay in a cul-de-sac of failure."

After 6 years, if you are continuing to employ your senior staff, who are responsible for destroying all areas of your company.. you're a bigger idiot then they are.

This.
I genuinely reckon he expects us to go down now. Selling Gordon & Onana this week would confirm that I reckon.
Oh this is happening, I was just about to post the same.
The club is actively trying to generate cash and remove any financial impact for next year, possibly relegation. There is a clear message that every player at Everton as a price and bids are probably being welcomed.

Nothing but admiration for the jumped up bag man of a criminal oligarch. That said I do hope he dies choking in the next 48 hours.
A week before the window slams shut, we have :
No manager
Signings walking away
Players not turning up for training
ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?
If we are going down, im going down laughing, getting upset or angry wont make any difference.
