The 3-4-3 was great for us last year and it brought us a lot of success, but I'm not sure if it'll be good enough in the champions league against the top teams like Real Madrid. Bakayoko and Kante in midfield against Modric, Kroos and Casemiro will be a total mismatch. That's why I think we need to switch to a 4-3-3 and try to create a midfield than can support Fabregas since he is good enough to compete with the sort of midfielders Real Madrid and Barcelona have. I would like us to play like this:
Courtois
Azpi Christensen Luiz Sandro
Bakayoko Kante Cesc
Pedro Lukaku Hazard
What do you dudes think?
Going back to a 4-at-the-back formation

Wahl bro what are your thoughts on all the pundits that are heavily critiising Chelsea for signing Bakayoko instead of giving Nathaniel Chalobah a chance because they reckon he's just as good?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Who said that? Bakayoko is way way way better than Chalobah who needs another loan imo.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I'd have him at Liverpool. We have too many midfielders though

You say 3-5-2, he says 3-4-3.
There were 5 players in defensive positions. Therefore for me it can only be 5-4-1.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
But there wasn't, do you not watch the PL? Most games we had more possesion and was attacking so we had most our players(even some in the back 3) in attacking positions, not defensive

The fact we haven't been linked with many RWB's make me think we might be returning to 4 at the back with Azpi moving back there.
If it does happen it'll be interesting to see how Luiz performs.

I really want him to be a success and become part of the 1st team, but how many times have we said that about one of our youth players in the last 20 years.
Our youth policy and progression to the 1st team is a joke.

I reckon the complete opposite will happen. Because of players like Salah, Lukaku & De Bryune slipping through our fingers, I'm betting they'll be pressure on Conte from the board to throw him in too quickly.
Everything you hear suggests the higher ups are completely behind him, see him as an opportunity to correct previous mistakes. Hopefully we don't over correct by rushing him, spending half of next season on the bench wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing.
