MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - Manchester United are struggling to get the best out of Alexis Sanchez since the Chile forward joined the club from Arsenal in the January transfer window, manager Jose Mourinho said on Friday as his team prepared to face Liverpool.

Sanchez has scored once -- tucking away the rebound after his penalty against Huddersfield Town was saved -- and has two assists in eight starts since moving to Old Trafford in a swap deal with midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan.
