Not that we don’t need better corners, generally speaking whipping a fast flat ball into the right area is a trickyer skill than many give credit for and doesn’t always come off, even at champions league level. Pros could hang one up in the six yard box all day, sure, but they get dealt with. Trying to get the proper connection for a hard to defend corner is always a little bit of a roll of the dice.
If you look closely, I think it is the shadow of the ball which makes it look a bit odd. I was sitting near where he took that and a few other corners and noticed nothing odd about his technique. Admittedly he failed with two or three corners, but he put in more successful corners than non-successful, including one near the end of the game where Woolfenden should have scored.
