#5 The breakdown of the 3-4-3 formation
Every team that marks its dominance in world football, is studied thoroughly and broken down by opposing teams eventually. The same happened with Arsenal Wenger's 'Invincibles' Arsenal of 2004, Pep Guardiola's 'Golden Barcelona'.
Conte revolutionized the Premier League with his 3-4-3 formation and built a team of winners from the same team, that was left in ruins by Mourinho. The team used a 3-4-3 formation during the counter and flawlessly switched to a 5-4-1 during the defence. Since then, a dozen teams have copied the formation but to a lesser perfection.
However, teams have worked out solutions for it as even minnows like Watford and Bournemouth managed to defeat Chelsea this season.
