It looks like Dougie Freedman has really changed up the side for this FA Cup match. It's what the fans wanted and what the players needed. The familiar 4-2-3-1 is also abandoned for a 4-4-2 against Premier League opposition (and to be fair, Sunderland have named a pretty strong side). What do you think of the changes to the starting XI?
