Kinnear's quote -
"We will sign an RB but not in time for Palace."
Maybe an agreement between us and Palace that the deal can go ahead for Munoz after we have played them.

I was just about to write the same thing, so it looks like it’s Munoz then, and yeh it makes sense that Palace won’t let go of him until after the first match. Hopefully this is true and Kinnear has quoted that they don’t want to just go down the list and sign someone else, we are prepared to wait for our number one target.
Interesting. I will be buzzing if it is Munoz.
On another quote by Kinnear, TFG classed last season as a failure, which is a big statement.
Sounds like Moyes is already on thin ice before the season starts.

And so he should be. Last quarter of the season, we seriously underperformed, a time when we need to push harder, show something different. We should have sent Spurs down. And now, because we didn’t, they’re asking premium of £40 mill for Richarlison, whereas if they were relegated he’d be half that amount.
So Moyes has cost Everton millions in prize money and possibly millions in transfer fees too.
So I don’t blame TFG one bit for not being happy right now.

Or, Kinnear and TFG should have pulled their fingers out and got a right back and a striker in January and we’d have finished stronger?

Moyes wouldn't have played them till April anyway.

Moyes cost Everton millions in prize money and millions in transfer money ? ffs. Nothing to do with the crooked VAR shouts that they have come out and already said were errors on their part (West Ham and City to name a few) .
Nothing to do with not having his best players available, JB, JG or AFCON wasn't a thing, tiring out another one of our better players in. It was all David Moyes' fault, the whole lot of it.

And the players still could have performed better on the pitch as well, I believe KDH even said so or along those lines.
We move forward and go again.

Moyes over performed for three quarters of the season. He didn't underperform at all. Why do people on here think we should have challenged for Europe after 5 years of constantly battling relegation? It was because of Moyes that we were able to bring in KDH and Jack whilst getting more out of Jimmy than any other manager since he signed.
You lot really need to get over the fact that he went to Man Utd. If he hadn't gone I would have seriously questioned his ambition and ability as a top manager.

It definitely helps to actually watch Kinear's interview before quiping the old DM tropes. It's a very candid yet measured interview. And nobody sticks out for extra abuse. It's a collective from owner to player. Refreshing to hear the club isn't following FM knee jerk choices mirroring of fans' displeasure.
Clearly another 12 months before all our financial difficulties are firmly in the rear view mirror and clarification that every penny of profit goes back to the club. The next 3 seasons are gonna be progressively more exciting. Hope you all make it.
It's definitely a positive interview.
