If this PSG caught Barça, it would be at least 7-0 with a hat-trick of Ousmane Dembélé 

🙊 This team, no joke, is too strong. They should thank Acerbi for sparing them from a historic correction 🥶.

In a jaw-dropping display of dominance, Paris Saint-Germain reminded the world why they’re one of the most feared teams in Europe right now. And make no mistake—had their paths crossed with Barcelona in this form, the result would’ve been nothing short of historic. Some fans are already saying it would’ve been a bloodbath. A hypothetical 7-0 rout, with a hat-trick from none other than former Barça winger Ousmane Dembélé, is the talk of the football community—and honestly, it doesn’t sound too far-fetched.

This PSG team isn’t just good—they’re frightening. Blistering pace, silky combinations, relentless pressing, and a newfound tactical maturity under Luis Enrique have turned them into a force that doesn’t just beat teams… they dismantle them.

Ousmane Dembélé, once criticized for inconsistency and injuries during his time at Barcelona, is now unleashing his full potential in Paris. On current form, he looks unplayable. His dribbling has purpose, his passing is crisp, and his confidence is sky-high. The man looks reborn. A hat-trick against Barcelona? With his current momentum, it’s not just a fantasy—it’s a possibility that would haunt Barça fans for seasons.

And let’s talk about the midfield. Vitinha, Fabián Ruiz, and Zaire-Emery look like they’ve been playing together for a decade. The chemistry is fluid, their movements intelligent, and their control of tempo exquisite. Barça’s young midfielders would’ve been completely outplayed.

In defense, PSG has grown in discipline and cohesion. Marquinhos is back to his commanding best, while Lucas Hernández and Hakimi offer width, aggression, and smart recovery. And let’s not forget Gianluigi Donnarumma, who’s proving why he’s still considered one of the best keepers in the world.

It’s no wonder fans are saying Acerbi did Barça a massive favor. His unfortunate error spared the Catalan side from a devastating clash with a PSG side that’s peaking at just the right time. The hypothetical matchup is being debated as if it already happened—because that’s how good PSG looked.

Barcelona, meanwhile, remains a work in progress under Hansi Flick. The German tactician is trying to restructure a side that’s seen an exodus of veterans and an influx of youthful promise. While there’s potential, there’s also fragility—something PSG would’ve ruthlessly exploited.

Just picture it: Dembélé darting down the wing, cutting inside on his left, and curling one into the top corner at Montjuïc. Imagine Kylian Mbappé toying with defenders, dragging them wide, and opening acres of space for Gonçalo Ramos or Asensio to burst into. Barça’s defense, shaky at times even against lesser opposition, simply wouldn’t have withstood the onslaught.

The comparison isn’t meant to be cruel—it’s a reality check. Barcelona is rebuilding. PSG is roaring.

For Barça fans, this is a moment of reflection. Perhaps missing out on PSG wasn’t a disappointment—it was divine mercy. The club still has structural issues to resolve, and the new system under Flick will take time to solidify. Facing a side as lethal as PSG in this phase of transition could have caused irreparable psychological damage.

For PSG, the real message is clear: They’re here, and they’re serious. No longer just the flashy side with individual brilliance, they’re now a well-oiled collective. And in knockout football, that spells danger for anyone who crosses their path.

While some may argue that football isn’t played on paper, form and confidence can swing the tide even before the whistle blows. Right now, PSG looks like a side that could beat anyone on any day—and perhaps, humiliate a few along the way.

And let’s not ignore the elephant in the room: Dembélé would’ve had extra motivation. Scoring against his former club? At Camp Nou? In front of fans who once cheered him, then doubted him? The script was written. And you just know he would’ve celebrated.

In football, matchups matter. And sometimes, the draw is more than luck—it’s survival. For Barcelona, escaping PSG wasn’t just luck. It might’ve been salvation.

So let the fans debate. Let them imagine the what-ifs and the could-have-beens. But one thing is certain: PSG is scary. And if this version of them had met Barça right now, 7-0 wouldn’t have been an exaggeration—it might’ve been a mercy.

Barça may be one of Europe’s giants, but even giants can bleed. And this PSG? They’re bloodthirsty.
