The way we play at the moment we have 3 forwards and 5 midfielders when attacking and 4 defenders and 5 midfielders when defending.
With 3-5-2 you'll always be 1 attacking player short.
Like I said earlier, there's better, more attacking ways to play 2 strikers than 3-5-2.
352 let’s us get Defoe and Alfie on the park at the same time. Also means we can go to 5 at the back when under pressure. Either jack or kamara can be binned as we don’t need 2 holding midfielders.
Our ‘wingers’ will still play in this formation as part of the 5 man midfield.
If they continue to be as ineffective as they have been at least Alfie would have someone within 30 yards to work off
