On the surface, Cedric Kipre looks like a perfect fit for Cardiff City.
Cast aside by West Brom, having been used sparingly last season, the 25-year-old appears to boast athleticism and a calmness in possession, something which has been sorely lacking over a number of years at Cardiff City.
On his first initial outings for Cardiff, he has looked like a breath of fresh air. Willing to take the ball under pressure at the back, turn his opposing attacker and mounting attacks.
