Arnaud Kalimuendo

Analysis: Kalimuendo recorded one inaccurate cross without attempting a shot during 17 minutes off the bench in Sunday's 1-0 defeat to Arsenal. He replaced Dan Ndoye in the 73rd minute and helped Forest push forward during the closing stages, becoming involved in the late attacking sequence that eventually presented Chris Wood with an opportunity inside the penalty area. Kalimuendo was unable to produce a direct goal contribution as Forest failed to find an equalizer despite creating several promising situations after falling behind.
