Bit shocked Jersy's getting a start but other than that, that is the team i expected Rafa to field.

Reina on the bench??? Weird...

Wonder if its a farewell to the pole in our goal??

Pepe has a slight injury by the looks of things.

Jerzy Dudek will keep goal for Liverpool as they start their defence of the FA Cup against Arsenal in today's Third Round clash at Anfield.

Pepe Reina drops to the bench to make way for Dudek; and Gunners boss Arsene Wenger has rotated his goalkeepers as well, with Almunia replacing Lehmann.

Peter Crouch and Dirk Kuyt will continue in attack for the Reds, with Luis Garcia and Daniel Agger replacing Mark Gonzalez and Sami Hyypia.

Liverpool - Dudek, Finnan, Riise, Carragher, Agger, Gerrard, Alonso, Garcia, Pennant, Kuyt, Crouch. Subs - Reina, Hyypia, Gonzalez, Aurelio, Bellamy.

Trying to find it, heard it on R5, no mention of V Persie being suspended.

[El Jefecito]

Van Persie is starting.

[SouthAfricaRed]

Arsenal side?

I think this confirms Crouchy's not going to the Barcodes.

Van Persie starts alongside Henry up front. It was from lfc.tv match console.
