Sol Bamba's presence at Sabri Lamouchi's Cardiff City unveiling on Friday was very much welcomed. But it perhaps wasn't the Sol many of us had expected to see.
Of course, he is overjoyed to be back. He loves the club and made a point of saying it before, during and after the press conference to those in attendance. But the Bluebirds' decline, both during and after his final years here as a player, has clearly hurt him.
Bamba was stern and, in truth, he looked like he meant business with his passionate responses to the questions posed to him.
