No mate it was a Baines inswinger.
Loads if skillful creative player should are slow and it's not a problem, look at David Silva, Fabregas, Iniesta, Xavi etc. the problem is that Sigurdsson is not getting into the game at all. Whether it's because of bad tactics or bad performances remains to be seen tbh because it's not crazy to think Koeman and Unsworth have put him out there out of position and with tactics he's unsuited to. If we hadn't signed Rooney and made him 'the main man' I think Sigurdsson would've been a great signing.

Baines took that corner
I really think it's a case of two many chefs spoiling the broth.
One of Rooney or Gylfi. I'd punt with Gylfi, as I think his quality from set pieces gives us a different dimension and he is a neat and tidy player who also gets up and down quicker than Rooney does.
Personally, for me he's either a left-sided central mid in a three-man midfield, or a no.10 - in both cases the players ahead of him need to be players who make runs in behind.
I think we'd see the best out of him then.
I'm not arguing he hasn't been poor so far. I just thought he was better last night.

He played across the midfield in his time with them.
But in those situations yesterday Sigurdsson was stuck out wide left.
When he did get more into the game he played central and had that chance he should have scored.
Was from a Baines corner mate.
More or less what he's done for us? He's played in the middle, on the left and on the right, he's also played as a false number 9.

Still time for him to come good and show us what is in his locker, keeping fingers crossed he can justify the fee.
He sat on his arse for 30 seconds crying for a freekick while Watford mounted another attack
He popped up in central positions plenty of times yesterday, and he has done in lots of games this season, and still we wait for him to even try to slide a pass through to a striker rather than take the safe option.
Give him a chance. We’ve hardly had any movement, confidence, correct position, coaching or players to aim at. He was never going to be a playmaker
That's a great comparison.
