I think Conte is to be partly blamed for last night's performance. All of our performances/approach to Europe this season has been in this manner - we seem very reserved and unmotivated, only to lose our marbles and panic for no apparent reason - this is already beyond the team that we have, as it's been a trend of our attitude in Europe this season which is vastly different than in Serie A. I do not think it has anything to do with how competitive these two are either, it's a mental thing. Conte needs to get the bottom of it
We do have a problem with our approach in Europe,not enough or maybe too much confidence, i don't know,but there some problem.
BUT you are wrong about the lineup selection.
What do you expect him to do when he has 11 games in 30 days coming?
Including games vs Torino,3 times vs Rats,Milan and Napoli.
Of course we need to rotate!you can't run the same line up every 3 days.
So if you have to chose a good game to give a few guys a rest of course it is the Trabzon game.and at home.
He has to rely on the backups as well.that's why we have them.
He's not guilty that the backups (not only them)sucked big time against a weak opponent...
He didn't expected that.
It was obvious he thought that Isla and Peluso would be enough.And I can understand that,but when he saw that the second goal didn't come,he threw in more guys to help.
And hey,that's the bench you have,what can you do now?if you want to rotate you have no choices but to use them.You just need to pick the right games and opportunities.They disappointed yes,and it's not his fault.But then again,almost everyone else played bad as well.

Theoretically speaking, I think we find ourselves in the same situation that we had under Capello's years here right now.
A team that is so dominant domestically using a certain formation that is less creative yet so compact against Italian teams. But when we play in Europe it's a total different play ground to us.
I feel like Conte is trapped in that situation, he can't simply switch his formation because we're doing so well in Italy but we'll find ourselves constantly underachieving in Europe.

The best way to break that cycle is re-build somewhat during the Summer, then you have an entire pre-season of training to adapt to a 4-3-3. Or in the case of some of our players we re-adapt, considering our defence are no strangers to a back 4 and we played 4-3-3 when Conte initially arrived
Another huge problem with the 3-5-2, is when our starting wing-backs aren't playing, the formation turns to shit. We essentially play with 9 men at times.
