Antonio Conte suggests 'two striker' formation change for Tottenham after Arsenal defeat

Antonio Conte has suggested that he could switch from his preferred 3-4-3 system to a 3-5-2 formation following Tottenham's defeat at Arsenal on Saturday. Spurs have exclusively played 3-4-3 this season, with two wingers flanking Harry Kane in a three-man attack.

However, ahead of Tottenham's Champions League clash at Eintracht Frankfurt on Tuesday evening, Conte has hinted that he may switch to a two-striker formation. With no out-and-out number nine in the squad to partner Kane, a formation switch would see either Richarlison or Son Heung-min line up alongside the Spurs captain.
