He's a good player,  feels like a better version of Oscar.  But in the same way wouldn't he have the same problem as Oscar in not really fitting in the 3-4-3,  bit too slow for the wing imo. Then again I haven't seen him play that much this season and might be completely wrong.

Conte wants him and Chelsea will get him.

For crying out loud, like if 3-4-3 is the only formation in the world.....

Unless we improve our cb and fb situation, a back 3 is the only viable alternative. So 343 or 352 take your pick. 

Personally don't want James. Always gave me the impression of a stinky attitude, pretty slow and not great off the ball. Good left foot though.

Never said that,  but that is what we've been playing and probably will start the season with. Even if we go for 3-5-2 or something similar we would somehow have to fit Eden into it, not to mention that Fabregas would probably be involved. Just saying Im not sure where he would play in that scenario,  but hey if Conte really wants him he'll probably have a better idea than me. But I doubt we will sign James.

Well yes you have a point. At the moment we can only play that formation and it is why we shall see what FB we get. 

CB I think Andreas might get a chance. Don't know if we will buy a CB. We shall see.

Conte don't want the 3-5-2. Read what he wanted to do originally when he came to Chelsea. 

I supposed that is still his plan, but yeah if we can't 3-5-2 might be the only option next season. 

Unless we get the personal to play the 4-2-4 as Conte wanted and this summer window might let us know that.

I wonder how well he could play as a shadow striker next to Lukaku in a 3-5-2. With Hazard below them in no.10 position and Bakayoko and Kante as the defensive shield in midfield.

Where would James fit in a 424
