He'll change his tune real quick when Uncle Flo goes all Dr. Evil on him, puts his pinky on his mouth, and tells him "Mino!! We'll give you........ One Hundred Million Euros!!"

Was Raiola not still on the clubs pay roll up until a couple of seasons ago.
Shudder at the thought.

He's a big fat liar.
And he always sells his players for a lot.
So, just to be clear, whatever if he signs for Barca or not, don't expect a friendly price. If Barca gets him, that'll be because Barca paid as much or more than RM. The usual "barca will pay less because Pogba wants to play here" doesn't work on Raiola and Pogba is not focused on Barca only either as you can read below.
Also, according to RMC, Pogba met with PSG's president 2 weeks ago becuase they both were in Monaco.
Still according to RMC, Pogba is not against a move to PSG, but still he would prefer to be far away from his relatives/friends because of their influences on him (said relatives will be happy to hear that).

Raiola is doing what every good agent should do. This is a deliberate tactic to alert RM and see whether they are serious in their pursuit of Pogba or not. PSG are definitely interested in him too and so are we.
As much as Pogba has impressed me this season then I don't think that he is anywhere near 100 million euros worth. Nor 70 million euros for instance. I don't see Juve selling for less than that.
That's not to say that I would be sad if he arrived, not at all, but personally I would prefer Verratti as unlikely as that is.
Anyway a new president and his new board might want to buy another player altogether.

Too bad then.
Di Campli, Verratti's agent, got angry 3 days ago about Pogba's fee. He said ""If PSG ever sells Verratti, it won't be for less than Pogba. And that "if" Pogba's fee is 100M, then it's 100M too for anyone that wants verratti".
But remember, RMC also said when reporting the news on Pogba that PSG's president was clear: He will not sell Verratti. If Pogba comes to Paris, it will be to play WITH Verratti.
So, you don't have the choice if you want Pogba or Verratti in Barcelona. At this point, just hope Barca gets Pogba because Verratti is a no go, just like TS and Marquinhos.
Also, people here still don't understand how Verratti is becoming a phenomenom too.
For example, the Gazzetta big new headline was "Verratti is - right now - the best italian player".
To quote an annoyed Raiola to RMC, the Rat also got annoyed when asked why PSG doesn't want to sell Zlatan (because like all agents, he wants to transfer his players to get more money), he said "PSG's president was clear, QSI is not here to make money, so offering a fortune doesn't work on them".

Hence me writing "as unlikely as that is".
I know very well that Verratti's reputation is growing rapidly in Italy. I read La Gazzetta dello Sport a few times every week.
Pogba is not the only option and for sure not if Juve want above 70 million euros for him at least. That's my opinion though. Some might disagree.

I dislike Pogba. Never hid my opinion here.
That said, I always try to be fair and honest, and I have to say he's become more than what I expected of him.
I'll be glad if he comes in Barca or Paris, even for 100M.
That said, I still don't see how PSG could pay those 100M. That's why I still believe it will be a RM vs Barca match here.

Pay the fee in installments?

This. Koke would fit perfectly into Luchos current system. A extremely underrated player. In my eyes he belongs in the same bracket as Verratti, Pogba etc. do. Far ahead of players such as Gündogan, Kovacic etc.
He is indeed a Colchonero to the bone. To tell you honestly then I would not mind if he stayed at Atlético. As a half Spaniard I want the Spanish league to be as strong as possible. As fans of the Spanish league we need a strong Atlético, Valencia, Sevilla, Villarreal etc. IMO.

I have nothing against Pogba. Seems like a likable person actually. You should watch some of the reports about him. It's just that I think that 100 million euros is an insane price for a player like him. It's not like he is the new Zidane. He is a box-to-box player for God's sake. Since when did they cost this much money?
If PSG really want him they can arrange some player sales no doubt. For instance Cavani. Or try to make a deal with UEFA etc.

Pogba seems like a cool, fun guy. Its exciting to see what becomes of him as I think he will continue to be one of the top names. I do think he needs to ditch his agent though. Guy seems like a leech and will throw Pogba to the highest bidder when in reality Pogba needs to do whats best for his career.
He should stay at Juve for at least another season. Prepare himself for the Euros while playing in a familar league. Don't let Raiola push him somewhere so quickly.

If I understood all the talks about the FFP and PSG here in France, they are forbidden to do that kind of deals.
Now maybe the rules will change this summer, we don't know, but for now it's not an option.

Raiola is a popular agent.
Whatever he says in medias, he seems to be very reliable about managing a player's career.
Raiola is just playing his role as many said here. What he says, what he does, don't go against what his players want or need. It all goes according to the plan.
Even Matuidi ditched his agent to join team Raiola.
