Been coming for ages, maybe it has to happen for Pep to get his head out of his arse and fix the glaring problems. And if it does have to happen, I'd rather it be in this competition where it doesn't matter at this stage than in the league.
So many people are looking in the wrong direction for the problem here though blaming players. It's nothing to do with the players, it's all on pep and his sunday league suicide shape. This will not be fixed until he changes the shape, doesn't matter who plays.
The worrying thing is pep has had weeks upon weeks of us scraping through gametoagainst week opposition to spot and fix it, he hasn't so I've no faith he'll do what's neccesary by the weekend and as a result i fear Brighton will be an ugly bloodbath.
