supposedly so, but apparently it was partly influenced by his favoured 4-2-4 formation, maybe it allows more pressure from the front line rather than flooding the midfield like we've been doing in the 3-5-2 and leaving our forwards somewhat isolated at times but we won't really know till we see it in practise, i must admit it did seem strange that we were linked with walcott and nani the past couple of days but after learning that Conte is toying with this new idea it does make sense.
