Liverpool great Sir Kenny Dalglish is keen to see Takumi Minamino start in the FA Cup this weekend against Manchester United.

The Reds face their old foes for the second time in a week with the match coming just seven days after their goalless stalemate at Anfield in the Premier League.

Dalglish said on his Kenn7 YouTube channel: “It'll be interesting to see what happens next week at Old Trafford.

“There might be a few of the boys coming back who need a game.

“The boys who never play like Milner, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Curtis Jones – he'll get a game. Minamino will get a game.

"So it'll be a strong team, but it'll be interesting to see what he does at centre-back."
