When Barcelona have the ball he plays as a winger. But as soon as they lose the ball he should quickly run back and help in defence. In Barcelona he would spend most of his time playing winger than right back and it should not be that hard to learn.
The one thing he has got is he attacks the opposing left back which means in most cases the other team has to defend with 2/3 players against him which creates more space for Messi, Neymar and Suárez. Alves no longer beats the left back in front of him and he will either pass the ball back or cross the ball to no one in the box, this is why most teams give Alves acres of space as they know that Alves will do nothing with the ball.
They should try Adama Traore there against Huesca for the first leg to see what happens.
