Gabby Agbonlahor isn't the biggest fan of The Friedkin Group, like many Everton fans right now.

The American ownership have been on the receiving end of major criticism after leaving David Moyes with a depleted squad.

TFG were tasked with adding quality in depth for the Scottish manager this summer, but instead the Blues lost one of their best players and are now left with just 18 senior outfield players.

Transfer deadline day was the final straw for a large section of the Hill Dickinson Stadium fanbase, who have been left apathetic about their beloved club.

Certain fan groups have decided to take a backseat as they demand accountability from TFG and Angus Kinnear.

Moyes will be the first person to face the music if things go sideways at the Merseyside outfit, but the ownership need to be asked questions.

Why David Moyes revelation at Everton doesn't make sense

Moyes recently revealed he's never spoken to Dan Friedkin since returning to the Toffees in January 2025.

Agbonlahor couldn't believe it when he learned about the absence of communication between the Blues' chairman and the Scottish manager.

It feels particularly odd because any reasonable owner of a football club would want to have a relationship with the head coach.

Agbonlahor lashed out at TFG for not attending matches and leaving Moyes out to dry.

Speaking on talkSPORT on 7 September, Jeff Stelling said, "It looks like the owners are looking for a way out. Reportedly, they felt it was a failure not to get into Europe last season. They clearly don't understand the game, do they?

"They don't ever go to games and Moyes revealed that he has never spoken to the owners since he has been in charge."

Agbonlahor responded, "Jokers. Wow, that's odd. Owners should be speaking to the manager straight away."

What David Moyes has said about Everton exit prospect after Friedkin Group revelation

Friedkin Group could be headed for disaster with David Moyes

Moyes is in the final year of his contract at Everton and a renewal doesn't seem to be on the agenda anytime soon.

Considering TFG's lack of investment in the Scottish manager's squad over the last few transfer windows, it feels like they're biding their time before he leaves.

It would certainly be surprising to see the 63-year-old head coach receive a new contract with how things have transpired.

Moyes is arguably one of the few managers capable of working with a small squad and budget.

Even if the American owners decide they want to keep the Scotsman, there's no guarantee he will want to continue in the position after how he has been treated.
