Firpo was playing well when he got injured but this is too big a game to throw his straight back in imo.
But yes, Dallas does give us more energy in midfield and is more likely to get a goal than Klich or Forshaw.

Any bets on how long it takes Firpo to get booked

Raph wouldnt be on bench if there was controversy.

Perhaps he is still fatigued.

Football has undergone a process of bielsification; pressing and possessing, passing rather than dribbling, intercepting high up the field rather than making last-ditch tackles, are in vogue.

Raph has got to be injured as many of us have suggested.

Bielsa can't be so insane to drop a fit Raph.

Dallas is playing injured also.

Neither looked injured in the training video released this week
