3-4-2-1 is just outrageously Italian, isn't it? Would turn us into defensive juggernauts again. 

Don't see it happening. Conte's smart, he'll trial 3 at the back in periodic ways.. To try from the off, while ballsy, would be dangerous. Especially with player not used to it. 

Preseason will be a determining factor. Looks like that Champions Cup thing might be a bit more popular than last year..

Why not? When we attack, we're basically playing that exact formation anyway:

 

Courtois

Cahill - Covering CDM,i.e. Mikel - Terry

Ivanovic - the deeper of the AMs, i.e. Oscar - Fabregas - Azpilicueta

Willian - Hazard 

Costa

I can't see us playing 3 at the back, honestly.

 

Unfortunately this season unless they are young players, we will be unable to buy much world class talent without champion's league football.

I expect that we will mostly stick; maybe if Vidal really wants to come . Maybe bring a few loanees such as Ake in, and actually play RLC.

Have to say I actually prefer Dave on the left; but with the departure of Eden inevitable in my opinion, Kenedy's overlaps there are of great value. Ake should go in the engine room, CDM.

For me, Costa stays. He loves it here and I'm not having it that he wants out.

              Begovic

Dave  Zouma  Terry  Kenedy

            Fabregas

       Mikel        Ake

Traore                  Willian

            Costa

I'm personally not on the bring-Christensen-back brigade just yet - unless it's for Cahill, because Terry is not ready to go yet, and if the rumours are to be believed, that's surely what the new boss will think come June.

Thierry Henry does not know who will play for Chelsea next season but the Frenchman claims it’s ‘almost certain’ he knows what formation incoming boss, Antonio Conte, will be using: 3-5-2.

WE will not play 3-5-2, stop obsessing about it. 

 

Conte only played 3-5-2 because it was the formation that suited Juventus's players. The reason he left Juventus is he wanted to buy wingers to change  formation. 

 

The fact that he favours 3-5-2 is a myth

I would guess he would either go 4-4-2 or 4-3-3

4-3-3 makes the most sense to me.  Only 2 CB's needed which is good since we currently lack quality cb's. 3 man midfield to compensate for Fabregas. Use of wingers (Hazard &Willian). Only uses 1 striker which is good as we only really have Costa.

Can't see Conte playing a 4-4-2 (4-2-4). Just wouldn't work with Fabregas as 1 of the 2 midfielders. In order for a formation like that to work both midfielders would need to be hardworking energetic players, like Vidal, Nainggolan, Marchisio,...

Also we lack depth in the striker departement to play a 2 striker system.

so far this is how I see our squad lineup at the moment. we will struggle all season long and I just see don't see things improving until we make at least another 3 to 4 changes before the september window closes.

 

this is my formation lineup

and all the players on the side for season subs changes.
