They should balance, in my opinion. Barcelona must meet high standards due to its La Liga and Champions League heritage. Managing these competitions is difficult, but a top club can do it. Strategy and prioritisation are needed, but they have the skill.
Barcelona's skills are not doubted by most people, but everyone has also seen the true reality this season where Barcelona is starting to fall behind and there is a possibility that it will be difficult to win in the Champions League even though Barcelona wants to make the Champions League their priority this season very well.
Let's put aside talking about fighting for champions this season in the Champions League or La Liga, because Barcelona's declining performance this season has disappointed everyone, especially their fans from several seasons ago who performed inconsistently, but even so they were still able to become champions. Last season's LaLiga, this year Xavi Hernandez's troops really lost their way in the League and Europa League, sometimes they still have difficulty maintaining concentration in each match. At least there is an improvement in Barcelona's squad this season so that it returns to the right direction and focuses on winning. any championship...
Well, let's see what moves Xavi will make for the Barcelona squad in the January transfer window because ya, with the financial problems that Barcelona still experiencing it will certainly make it difficult for Xavi to be able to restore Barcelona quickly. Also, although last season Barcelona won the La Liga title but still, the results obtained by Barcelona over the past two seasons in the Champions League and in the Europa League are poor.
Moreover, this season Barcelona had poor results in La Liga as well and of course, this kind of performance also remains difficult for Barcelona in the Champions League. It does not matter, if for example maybe Barcelona this season is more focused on the Champions League because ya, basically Barcelona still has problems and has an adverse impact on their performance also this season maybe in all competitions.
