(Reuters) - Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder believes his side suffering three injuries to first-team players is a bigger blow than Virgil van Dijk's long-term absence is for Premier League champions Liverpool.

Liverpool are set to be without Dutch centre back Van Dijk for a lengthy period as he requires surgery after damaging his knee ligaments in the Merseyside derby last weekend.
