Wasn't an open goal (wasn't even 1v1) but should have definitely scored. Lee's was an "easier" chance and he fluffed it as well.
There is something really wrong with our players. They all seem to have lost the composure they had a month ago (we weren't exactly free scoring then but at least we were hitting the target)

I was in the North Stand right behind the Nuhui chance (and the first Lee one) and he had almost half the goal unguarded as the keeper was only covering one side of the goal so it was just a question of getting bit on target. We were taught at U11 level that on a bobbly pitch, you should always play the top of the ball as this prevents you ballooning the ball over if it bobbles. Does SG not teach his strikers the basics?

Lee's first chance was not quite as easy but pretty easy. If he hit it with his left foot there was a gap of about two yards that the keeper couldn't have covered. The second Lee chance, I didn't have such a good angle on & have only seen the TV coverage.

Maybe because SG is always talking about the pitch & how it makes it difficult to score, they expect bobbles so lose their composure. If the manager gives you an excuse, the players will take it.

Sir Alex Ferguson used to say that good players stand out more on a bad pitch.
