United get fewer penalties than Arsenal and Liverpool, and score fewer than Chelsea

There's a fantastic statistical snippet in today's Sunday Times, showing the number of Premier League penalties that top sides have been awarded over the past ten years, and how successful they are at converting them.  Here are the stats for the "top four":

Manchester United

Penalty success rate since 1999-2000 season: 78.3%
Penalties awarded: 46
Penalties scored: 36

Liverpool

Penalty success rate: 75.5%
Penalties awarded: 53
Penalties scored: 40

Chelsea

Penalty success rate: 94.9%
Penalties awarded: 39
Penalties scored: 37

Arsenal

Penalty success rate: 81.8%
Penalties awarded: 55
Penalties scored: 45

So we've been awarded fewer penalties than both Liverpool and Arsenal, but no-one comes close to Chelsea's daunting 94.9% success rate.
