'It's the stuff of dreams!': Sunderland fans react to Jack Ross' surprise team selection against Burton Albion

Jack Ross has rang the changes for tonight's game against Burton Albion - and they have been welcomed by Sunderland fans.

The Black Csats boss has brought in Grant Leadbitter alongside Dylan Mcgeouch in the centre of midfield, leaving out Max Power.

And in another surprise move, Bryan Oviedo has been brought in at left back for his first start in 2019.

Elsewhere, Aiden McGeady again misses out, while George Honeyman - the matchwinner against Rochdale - comes back into the starting line-up for the injured Lynden Gooch.
