352 is stronger as it stands today due to the players we have available.

Conte has spent more time working on 343, so it makes sense he would prefer to play that formation of he can.
Wrong choice of phrasing because with Kulusevski injured then I would rather play Bissouma than Moura or Gil tomorrow

But if Kulu will be ready for the weekend then I think, like Conte says, 343 is better currently. 352 a great option tho.

Agree with others on here, Conte is right that 3-4-3 is his main formation and what he would probably prefer to play, but with only two decent forwards available for the game it pretty much makes the decision for him, especially with how Bissouma has looked recently. I mean Son and Kane up front is the most lethal attacking partnership in the league. If Bissouma allows Bentancur and PEH to get up the pitch a bit more and Sess and Doherty provide proper width and attacking threat from the wings then that's a very solid looking team that can take Utd at Old Trafford.

So for me, has to be:

Lloris

Romero - Dier - Lenglet

Doherty - Bentancur - Bissouma - PEH - Sess

Kane - Son​

So he's stuck with Davies at LCB, thought Conte would prefer him than Lenglet at Old Trafford..

In games at Old Trafford that Davies has started we've had the following results:

2015 - Lost 1-0
2017 - Lost 1-0
2018 - Lost 2-1
2019 - Lost 1-0

Not sure it's going to be as valuable as you think, and added to Lenglet's passing, I would play the latter.

I bet Kane started all of those too..
