Great game and only some excellent keeping kept him off the scoresheet. He’s a different player when we have a left-sided defender prepared to take the outside and allow him to come five yards inside.

Spot on. He was sensational tonight. His pace when dribbling is electric and the little reverse ball to Gomez was just class. He is so sharp under pressure and tonight he mixed his game up so well. The goals and assists will come if he keeps playing like that.

The downside being that we were so open defensively.

He was great tonight but I can’t see Pep letting him have that much freedom regularly, certainly not from the left.
 
Promote Borges, get Grealish playing as a left-sided 8. That'd be a great pairing.

Use Ake as leftback and not push forward.

No. We would need a proper left back for that to happen. When we played away at Spurs at the start of the last campaign, we actually gave him that freedom, with he who cannot be named at left back. That’s one reason why identifying a taller and more powerful left back is so important; Grealish would go from a conservative 7 to an 8-9 in most matches.
