What’s wrong with playing three centre backs? I don’t want the boring football but I’m not against three centre backs. Can push one into midfield when in possession. And the next manager I want us to play quick football, not mess around passing back and sideways. Just quick decisive plays and a centre back that can carry the ball forwards could help with that, would be like a libero.

It just means you are default outnumbered in midfield and you have a weaker ballplayer on the pitch. Having a DM occasionally slot in between two CBs if both FBs push up is much more effective. CBs may be able to pass, but i dont recall one who can receive the ball under a tight press and pivot 180 to move the ball on - that's a specialist role
It doesn't mean you are outnumbered in midfield. 3-5-2 means you should have more in midfield. There shouldn't be any need for a CB to pivot 180 to make a pass, one of the 3 midfielders should be doing that. Like with any system it's how it's implemented and the intent behind it.
