Former Liverpool star Luis Suarez advised Darwin Nunez to learn from his mistakes after the Uruguay international saw red for violent conduct in only his second Premier League outing.
Nunez's first start in the English top flight came to a premature end on Monday when he headbutted Crystal Palace defender Joachim Andersen.
That offence caused the former Benfica to receive his marching orders after just 56 minutes, leaving a far from ideal impression on the Anfield crowd in his debut in front of the Liverpool faithful.
Suarez, now in his native Uruguay with Nacional, is of course no stranger to controversy.
As a Liverpool player he received an eight-match ban after the FA found him guilty of racially abusing Manchester United's Patrice Evra, while the end of his time with the Reds coincided with a four-month suspension for biting Giorgio Chiellini at the World Cup.
So who better than Suarez to counsel his compatriot on how to stay out of trouble in England?
Suarez's advice to Nunez
The star revealed to Telemundo that he had spoken with Nunez following the incident, "because he is just starting out and to make him aware that from now on [opponents] will be seeking him out twice or three times more often.
"Even more so in England, he's hearing this from an idiot who make mistakes and suffered for them, but falling down and getting up again made me stronger
"Don't give them any more chances, it'll only get worse."
Suarez went on to back Nunez to make a quick recovery from this early setback.
"Darwin is someone who listens a lot. He is very smart that way and I think he will try to turn this situation around, it's not a big deal, we have all made mistakes, we have all been sent off," he added.
"The problem is that he's only just arrived over there and in England, to put it lightly, they make a big deal out of everything."
