As other people have said Lambert probably knew a while back that he had dropped a bollock signing Luna and has acted quickly to fix that in the window, good to see posters are happy about this new player after the meltdown on here over Holt arriving which I didnt quite understand.
I am sure Luna will come good once he has adapted to the Premier league, and no i am not joking.


I dont think Luna will come good at this level but I hope I am wrong.

Just heard about this. Decent signing I think and good luck to him.

Has anyone suggested the nickname "Plastic" for him yet? If not, I will.

Still trying to work this out.

Good signing,will look a lot more solid with him in at left back. Any chance of a permanent in the summer?

This piece from wiki explains the nickname -


Bertrand joined Norwich City on loan for the rest of the 2007–08 season.[7] He put in a number of impressive displays playing at both left full back and on the left wing, and admitted he would welcome a longer stay with the club. Bertrand became popular with the Carrow Road crowd earning him the nickname 'Plastic' in reference to the Belgian singer Plastic Bertrand.[8] On 4 July 2008, he rejoined the club on loan until January 2009

You need to have been into late 70s punk. Plastic Bertrand was a French one hit wonder.
