horsefly 4,298 Posted February 16, 2021 Looks a very interesting development (very Webber): https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-9265715/Norwich-City-English-club-fork-750k-high-tech-SoccerBot360-simulator.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nuff Said 5,121 Posted February 16, 2021 (edited) Hmm, we’re not the sort of club to **** £750 grand unless we think it’s worth it, but... It’s hardly the realistic match simulation it claims if the ball comes straight back wherever you kick it, is it? And I’d be going back to their marketing department asking for a new name too. Soccerbot? Really? 🤔 Edited February 16, 2021 by Nuff Said Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AJ 1,218 Posted February 17, 2021 Can't wait to see them unveil our new signing SoccerBot360 - I hope he's as good as Liverpool's version in Salah, Barca's Messi and Juve's Ronaldo. I assume he's a newer model so might have a few upgrades? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rivvo 257 Posted February 17, 2021 Looks very similar to the box that Dortmund have at their training centre, I read an article on it a few years ago and it states that players pass, move and control stats had increased significantly by regular use of it, obviously that’s a different bit of kit but I assume it does a similar thing.

HertsCanary93 222 Posted May 3, 2021 From watching these videos it looks like an incredibly overpriced gimmick... The sort of thing you'd see at a games arcade that no one uses because it costs £5 a pop. However maybe that's why I'm not working in the football business. If Webber/Farke think it's worth it, then I'm sure if will be useful. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
