You hold the crab till flare. After flare you straighten the nose with rudder or hold 5 degrees crab if too strong a wind and use stick as required to maintain direction or the centre line in that you may use 5 degrees of bank before touch down. That is the recommended technique for all not only for you. The dispute is can you do it from 100ft or 200ft? Airbus does not recommend it and the reason is stick out of neutral is rate of roll demand. If you want to do it ask the airbus. Don't develop procedures on your own or drag Boeing procedures in AB FBW.
