Jamie Carragher has continued his criticism of the Everton board following previous comments labelling the Blues as the "worst run club in country".
Last week, the official club accounts were released for the 2021/22 period and they painted a worrying outlook on the future amid an ongoing relegation battle. Under Farhad Moshiri's stewardship, there has been an influx of players which hasn't provided the springboard to push Everton forward, and it has come at significant financial cost.
Since the turn of the year, there has been growing anger and concern from Everton fans which has sparked protests against the club and the hierarchy.

Bootle-born Carragher has been open in his criticism of the dealings at Goodison Park, having already doubled down on his claims earlier this year as well as revealing that the club had 'got in touch' with him over his views.
Asked about the situation at Everton with an alleged breach of profit and sustainability rules hanging over the club, Carragher said on Monday Night Football: "One-hundred percent it does [make survival more important], and you look at the situation they’re in and I think on this show I’ve been very critical of the Everton board - Moshiri, Bill Kenwright and Denise Baxendale - we called them one of the worst-run clubs in the country.
"I think when you see the financial situation and the results that have come out over the last few days I think you’d have to say we’re not far wrong when we talk about Everton like that.
"You think of the money that’s been put in, we’ve been critical of the decisions been made and you have to accept that - £750 million he’s put into Everton and then you see that team on the pitch? If they go down, whether he’d stick around, even if they’d go into administration - that’s how bad it is financially for Everton right now.
"The really interesting thing is that this came up last season when there were a couple of clubs in the Premier League, I think it was Burnley and Leeds, who were fighting relegation last season with Everton, asking questions of the Premier League asking them to do something about this.
"You think of Sean Dyche, he would have been at Burnley at the time and I’m sure he would have been aware of those complaints to the Premier League and maybe it comes back to bite them when he’s in charge. As he’s just said, as players there’s nothing they can do, they’ve just got to focus on their games right now, but as I’ve said the way that club is run is not good enough and it’s a million miles away from where it needs to be."
