That is according to BT Sport pundit and former Liverpool striker Michael Owen.
Barcelona star Suarez was his usual terrier-like self in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final at the Nou Camp.
The Uruguayan scored the opener for Barca against his former side with a fine run and finish.
But he clashed with a number of Liverpool stars in the first half, including Virgil van Dijk and left-back Robertson.

And according to Owen, Luis Suarez made his feelings clear to Robertson in the tunnel at half time.
Owen was in the tunnel at the time and reported on the incident for BT.
“There was a little bit of commotion walking up the tunnel at half time there,” Owen said.
“Suarez having a bit of a go at Robertson, continuing that spat they had in the first half.”
Despite trailing 1-0, Owen was confident Liverpool were still in the tie as long as they did not concede a bigger lead in the second half.
“I thought Liverpool started the game really, really well,” he added.
“It’s just important now they don’t let this game drift and get away from them.
“Obviously going back to Anfield is so, so important for them with a result.
“So, okay, try to get the away goal.
“But don’t let this game slip now because Anfield is a fortress as we all know.”
Liverpool were not able to prevent Barca from scoring again with a second-half brace from Lionel Messi giving the hosts a 3-0 win.
Liverpool midfielder Naby Keita will be a doubt for the second leg after picking up an injury in the first half.
