NEW Nottingham Forest recruit Felipe has warned he is bringing Diego Simeone's "warrior" spirit to the City Ground.
The 32-year-old center-half has joined Steve Cooper's (below) growing band of boys from Brazil relishing the kind of aggro that saw him spark a Champions League brawl and his sending-off after a challenge on Manchester City's Phil Foden.
And a hack at Sadio Mane's ankles during a tussle with the Argentinian's side earned the defender another red card.
Asked whether the dark arts will be on show, Felipe was happy to confirm that, yes, they will.

"I really like that and I have it in my game, too.
