Dude, he headed it towards an area he does not control. The only secure thing in this situation is to get it out for a corner or at least to a corridor he knows is safer. Heading it backwards is the opposite of secure, anything can happen - and it did. Incredibly poor defending, no two ways about it. Hit him earlier than expected? I really don’t know what that’s supposed to mean.

He was just trying to get a connection, he won the first ball. Where it goes after that is on his teammates.Roy Keane saying that our early sloppyness in passing (esp from Fred and DDG) is whats giving Newcastle the confidence to have a go at us. He's not wrong.
I’m just jesting with you. We’ve been shite
I think he would have let Maguire know to head it behind aswell to be honest.
He probably thinks he’ll give it a little dunk for a Newcastle throw on the far side.Martial stop losing the ball every time you oaf!!Martial's a fecking waste of space. I mean, at least if he put in a shift and looked like he gave a feck I'd accept that his play with the ball was off, but this is just abysmal.
Have to wait for 75 minutes for that mateWell, Martial better fecking score in this half if he's still playing.
Make sense.Another dangerous header from slobhead
It wasn't his fault alone, people try to pin it on 1 player but rarely is a goal simply down to 1 player. Had Fred been switched on then it's not a goal. Had Harry judged the ball better than it's not a goal.
Martial isn’t good enough, he needs dropping and we have talented young players ready to take his place.
Has to force the issue at times. That's always the problem in these games against bus park merchants.
We're a team of runners up front, watching City is like another sport sometimes.I blame myself for thinking, against all evidence, that we would actually make half-time subs.
We do the same shit every game against teams like this. 2 defensive midfielders, zombie football, concede from a set-piece, finally make attacking subs with 20 minutes to go, maybe steal a winner.
Criminal man... How do James and Martial stay on man? At least one of them should be off... Feck off man.We’re making Almiron look like prime ozil ffs
Its not that time yet
Yeah must be getting sick of seeing us play like this at home and Ole clearly too stubborn to move Lindelof into Europa League XIWhen do we think he'll make a change? 73mins?Shelvey with a yolo effortNewcastle upping their game. fecking wankers
De Gea isn't actually that good at shot stopping any more.
Henderson had better stats than him last year.Shaw has been really bad today
The realism is sinking in for him that this team is winning nothing anytime soon.
That is because they know that nobody is going to want to buy him.That 1st half was woeful. CB’s look like a joke and the midfield couldn’t hit a barn door right now with a pass.
Forwards for t mins gave me false hope but been non entities really apart from working little triangles.
Eh? It’s us that’s dropping it by miles
He should headed it away from the danger area. Not into it, whichever his nose was facing.ASM vs James
Jonjo Shelvey, a face not even a mother could love.How many times have they won the ball back at the last second. Where was this workrate against Chelsea? These teams fancy it against us so much.fecking De Gea not coming for the cross again
Have you been watching? James has crossed it in plenty of times but Martial is always too slow to react
Maguire at the back and Martial in front. Oh the horrorHe tried that stupid header again!This is so demoralizing and depressing.Our passing out from the back its usual sensational stuff.
Where's roy Keane saying that?- Status
