Ralph Hasenhuttl slashed for sacking after Southampton suffer record defeat

Ralph Hasenhuttl has been slashed to as short as 8-11 from 16-1 to be the next top-flight manager sacked after his Southampton side were destroyed 9-0 by Leicester City, who equalled the record for the biggest ever Premier League win.

The Foxes, now 13-8 for the top four, leapfrog Manchester City into second in the standings.

Ayoze Perez and Jamie Vardy hit hat-tricks for the visitors while Ben Chilwell, Youri Tielemans and James Maddison netted after Ryan Bertrand was sent off for the Saints 12 minutes into the game.

The defeat, which matches the Premier League's record loss by Ipswich Town against Manchester United in 1995, sees the Saints move into the drop zone and they have been cut to 15-8 for relegation.

Leicester, who were 7-5 to win on the south coast, are 2-5 in the without the big six market with Sky Bet and are above Arsenal, Tottenham and Manchester United in the outright market at 100-1.
