“We’ll see about Chiellini today, but there isn’t much optimism. Without Caceres we are forced to go back to a three-man defence, which has become more of a necessity than a choice."

I think that he had asked for winger in summer but at the end of mercato he got nothing. It turned out that Diamanti, Bonaventura and others are too pricey. If I remember correctly Conte wanted at least 5 or 6 new names in the squad: ST, SS, Winger, CM, RB/LB and CB. Marotta bought only three from this list, negotiations concerning Nainggolan went wrong, Diamanti remained in Bologna and as a result we got stuck with 352.

It sounds like he is pressing for right winger.
So, the coach is telling that he cannot play a 4backline, because a fullback is injured, and you read this as "conte asked for a winger ?"

Not quite.

we also arent playing 433 when we play a back4. its a 4-3-2-1. a formation that doesnt use wingers
