By his own admission, Alexis Sanchez has struggled to settle at Manchester United during his first couple of months with the 20-time English champions.

The 29-year-old moved to United in January as part of the deal that took Henrikh Mkhitaryan to Arsenal.

Sanchez scored against Huddersfield Town on his home debut for the Red Devils, but had to wait until Saturday to register his second goal for the club.

The Chilean, who is valued at £63m by transfermarkt.co.uk, had comfortably his best game in a United shirt against Swansea City as he set up Romelu Lukaku for the opening goal before netting the second in his team’s 2-0 win.

It was much more like it from the attacker, who will now be looking to make an impression in Saturday’s Manchester derby with Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium.

The United supporters have previously been heavily critical of Sanchez, but many were pleased with his performance against Swansea on Saturday afternoon.
