United's 9-0 win wasn't even their first in the Premier League... In 1995 new-boy Andy Cole hit FIVE, Fergie 'prayed' Red Devils wouldn't reach 10, Ipswich fielded 'one of the slowest back fours ever' and George Burley ducked the post-match media

Ipswich Town will feel a debt of gratitude to Southampton. For so long, they bore the scars of being the only team to concede nine goals in a Premier League fixture.

Now, in the space of just over 15 months, Southampton have shipped that many not once, but twice. Losing 9-0 at home to Leicester City in 2019 was bad enough but now the Saints share Ipswich's pain of letting in that same number at Old Trafford.

Ipswich's 9-0 drubbing by Manchester United back in March 1995 is arguably worse, though.
