Manchester City trounced a hapless Leeds United side 7-0 in the Premier League last night. Six players were on target for the champions, including Kevin De Bruyne, who struck a brace.

Suffice to say, it's one of their biggest wins in Premier League history. But where does it rank on their all-time list?

Ah, the early days of the Sheikh Mansour takeover! Manchester City didn't remotely boast a squad like they do now, but still managed to rip Portsmouth to shreds.

Inspired by the peerless Robinho, who also got on the scoresheet, the Sky Blues made light work of Mark Hughes' side, netting four times in the second half.


#7 Manchester City 6-0 Tottenham Hotspur (2013)

Manchester City made a rocky start to the 2013/14 season, losing four of their opening 12 league games, yet they had no issues putting six past Tottenham.
