Just do what one did before every aerial conveyance came with flaps. Slips are not for crosswinds only. In particular the so called Forward Slip is what one uses to increase the descent rate without increasing the airspeed. By exposing the side of the fuselage to the airstream and effectively changing the airfoil of the wing temporarily (because at least one of them is at least partially blocked from that normal airstream) you get down fast and controlled without any speed increase.
Provided there is no crosswind to take into account most pilots will swing the nose right and then stay on the center line using the ailerons. This way they do not have to look over as much of the panel to see the runway and in most US registered airplanes the right turning prop adds a little extra help to get re-aligned just before touching down.

Do the wonderful airplane justice by learning to fly it like a pro...after all it was built by a bunch of pros.
