      This same guy previously criticised Dest early in the season. Dest has been a great buy. When last did Barcelona such a craft full back. Alba has speed but honestly cannot dribble 1v1. I also saw Dest as being caged when Messi was there. He is much braver now and so are many players as all the play doesn't have to go through Messi. I am pretty sure when Dembele and Fati returns, you will see a very different Barcelona. Dest had a great game because he was given the responsibility of attacking in the back 4. When Alba plays, we lose all of Dest's trickery because he stays back and we become predictable with Alba.

      Video title is about being productive at Barcelona, but then they just rant about how untrustworthy he is defensively for the USMNT?? Well, if that's the case, then maybe Berhalter needs to adjust. A good coach should be able to adjust tactically to fit the strengths of their players (a la tiki-taka with Barca years back). They even said it, the RB spot is Dest's to lose. Therefore, until he's improved defensively, he's your best option and you ought to play him in a way that suits his abilities, or at least try to given the other players around him.
