He was non-stop drinking beer after beer for the 30 minutes of the parade I followed. I even commented in the chat that he's gonna fall from the bus with this rate of drinking.

Don't see a problem here, he's been waiting for this his entire career.

That's why we shouldn't celebrate before the last game imo, so everyone can let loose then go on vacation

That's how a defender should look like

Don't want to see him and Cubarsi as a starting pair ever again.

Both are average at best.
Weird thing to say after such a season. They are more than good enough. If we don't apply pressure in the first third of the pitch, our defense is exposed. No one will look good under such conditions, not even prime Van Dijk

All I'm asking for is us not to average 3 goals conceded every game. Which has been the case last 1.5 months.

This is a far bigger problem than people are realizing.

In the last 45 days, Barca conceded 3 against Madrid, Inter x2, Dortmund, Celta, and Villarreal today. 6/14 games is too much, but it's not "every" game, and our defensive level dropped because we could not sustain the press because of fatigue and poor depth.

Flick himself keeps repeating that we need to sort out the defense so just let the man work

I'm aware of all of those reasons. And one of those 6 was conceding 4 goals in that game, that cost us the CL.

Part of the drop in defensive level has to do with fatigue no doubt, and part IMO is to do with the likes of Inigo and Cubarsi being found out against more serious opposition in high leverage moments.

The mistakes they make are obvious to me and often independent of playing in a high line.
