Perhaps when the Valar were created more than one became evil, Morgoth being just the most powerful one? Or perhaps that phrase means to say that they were there before Sauron went to Arda... perhaps they were there when Arda was created before the Valar and Ainur inhabited it?
Or maybe those creatures were there before Sauron was corrupted by Morgoth and therefore becoming the evil Sauron?
I really don't know, but I was pondering those options. I would think that the second one seems the most likely, as Arda was created yet we don't know if all the Valar and Ainur went there right when it was created.
