Squad depth is the thing we lack so we need players who can come off the bench to change games and be part of the squad rotation. One big reason United beat us in the league was because they had big games from subs like Tevez, Giggs and Macheda.
Keane was suppose to be that different option that could play in certain games and come in when our original formation wasn't breaking down the opposition as was Babel's and Benayoun's role too. With only the later successful at filling that role.
So is the thinking that Riera will no longer be the main left option and him moving to a more squad/sub role.
