yep. Every big clubs have had to spend big "silly" money on top signing relative to their times. Those are the type of sacrifices to make and improve your squad.
Barca went through all those legal troubles and overpaying Neymar jr dad(who is his agent) to get him at all cost. They wanted him and did everything they could(even go as far as get into shading dealing
) to get their man and now they are
ripping their reward. I'm not even going to get into Real whose most recent case was Bale and were stretch to overpay and make him the most expensive player in history to get him, and now they're also
ripping the reward.
The deal with Pogba might look nuts right now but it's better to get it done regardless instead of regretting few years later and wonder what could have been because we refused to caught up some extra cash.
Sure now Juv are playing us for clowns and trying to suck from us as much as possible but the pay off are likely to be worth it, and when that happen we'll all forget about the fees and all the nonsense currently going on.
