Easier said than done.
Not qualifying for the CL will have major consequences for us.
Like what? It's 1 season.

If you really wanted to talk about plastic fans leaving the Barca train, mentioning PSG would make way more sense than Bayern. But I guess it could be seen as a dig at Messi's fans so you skipped.
No secret some here like the way Bayern plays though. That's true.

Yeah, and if we don't we'll live and move on.

We'll live and move on even if Barca's relegated. Guess that's not wanted either.
Barca missing out on CL would mean no CL money and players refusing to come even if we had funds to afford them.
That's just not true. If you miss out on 1 year, it doesn't mean that this is a continuous thing or that it defines the project in following years already. It's a bad hiccup that you get over with. Plenty of top sides failed to make CL at some point. Italy failed to play at the World Cup in Russia. Won this Euro.
I remember a hilarious Zenit - Bayern 4-0 in Uefa Cup back in 2008 or so. In 2010 Bayern made CL final.
Barca missing out on CL would also mean the board likely having to resign so any type of planned rebuild is instantly destroyed. Might also put off some managers.
Could become an institutional mess yet again.
A club that's already in deep shit financially cannot afford to lose out on even more money, a lot of money by missing out on the Champions League.
A club that have been destroyed due to institutional chaos cannot yet again fall into the same shit as a motion of no confidence would almost certainly succeed against the current board in this case forcing new elections and more uncertainty.
You have to take everything into account. We simply cannot afford to miss out on the CL, no matter what.
Different times. Not comparable to the late 90s and early 2000s and all that.
