Etihad Stadium, 21 September 2019 - Manchester City 8-0 Watford, five goals inside 18 minutes, and a reminder that Pep Guardiola's side can still dismantle a defence for fun.
Inside a minute a midfielder taps in from a whipped cross. Ben Foster then rushes out and upends a winger; the striker buries the penalty. A deflected free-kick makes it three, a stooping header from a corner four, and a sliding finish from a cut-back five before anyone has drawn breath - the fastest 5-0 start in Premier League history.
After the break the same attacking midfielder slots a sixth, completes a hat-trick from another teasing delivery, and one of the architects of the chaos finally joins the scorers late on, smashing an eighth into the top corner.
Quique Sánchez Flores, two games into his return, can only apologise to the travelling support. Watford barely touch the ball in City's half all afternoon.
City finished second that season; Watford 19th and were relegated.
The phrase "top bins" is all about the top corners of the goal, where the crossbar meets the posts. It describes a goal scored with precision, power, and accuracy right into the top corner - an unstoppable strike! It is synonymous with "finding the corner" or a "perfect" strike - e.g. "They've put that top bins" or "That is top bins!".
