Arnaud Kalimuendo-Muinga

Probably just guess work as he wasn't involved in either friendly yesterday. Wouldn't be surprised if he did move on soon though.
 
Can't blame the guy after last season's shenanigans. Hopefully we get a new striker in to challenge woody at some point before the window slams shut

He did. He volleyed the ball over from 3 yards.

Damned with faint praise!
It was not a simple chance, and I don't think it was 3-yards out.
The ball came over his shoulder, and a centre-half was diving in with a spoiling tackle.
The ball was too far ahead of Kali so he had to hit it on the volley, under pressure, and leaning back to be able to reach the ball.
If it had gone in it would have been a stunning goal.
A difficult half chance at best.

Depends on your choice of narrative Captain. Some seem desperate to paint him as shit.

I just watched it back. From a CHO corner Morato headed back from the penalty spot over the entire Udinese back line. Kalimeundo turned and was practically standing in the keepers boots he was so close to goal when - completely unopposed - he spooned the ball straight over the bar. It was easier to score than manage to put it over. For a supposedly top level striker, and one who has already struggled to impress at Forest, it really was a pitiful effort.

Never criticised for him for it, or said it was an easy chance Just said he volleyed it over from 3 yards - which he did. (He's halfway inside the 6 yard box when he hits it. )

When i saw it back i appreciated how difficult the chance was, he's taking a volley over his shoulder while being challenged from a defender who is basically occupying the space he needs to shift his body in to so that he can get over the ball. I also think there was an element of pre-season about it in the sense that a full throttle attempt might have ended up quite nasty for one or both of thr players.
