How many penalty shoot outs have thee been between United and Chelsea?
I can't think of many, if any games that teams have set out from the kick off and played 120 minutes deliberately to get to penalties, during extra time yes but not for 120 minutes.
Hard to say what suitable alternatives there are, five a side for extra time would be fun and really put the managers to the test.
