He went for the ball, so he's active and there for offside. If a player motioned to head the ball when in an offside position, left it and and the keeper was wrong footed is that not offside?

A player in an offside position at the moment the ball is played or touched by a team-mate is only penalised on becoming involved in active play by:

interfering with play by playing or touching a ball passed or touched by a team-mate or

interfering with an opponent by: 

 

preventing an opponent from playing or being able to play the ball by clearly obstructing the opponent’s line of vision or

challenging an opponent for the ball or
clearly attempting to play a ball which is close to him when this action

impacts on an opponent or
making an obvious action which clearly impacts on the ability of an

or opponent to play the ball

gaining an advantage by playing the ball or interfering with an opponent when it has:

rebounded or been deflected off the goalpost, crossbar or an opponent been deliberately saved by any opponent 

 

I don't think he interfered to the extent schmeichel would have saved it if he wasn't there. Idk it's open for discussion I suppose, could go either way.

What's he supposed to do, let the player just run through and score

Because from that position the player had shit loads of work to do. If you are seriously suggesting his only option was to chock him down, have a word.
