You can delete a collection like this:

$manager = new \MongoDB\Driver\Manager("mongodb://" . $username . ":" . $password . "@{$host}:{$port}");
$manager->executeCommand('database', new \MongoDB\Driver\Command(["drop" => "collection"]));

or you could follow the instructions in this guide :

$db = (new MongoDB\Client)->demo;

$result = $db->dropCollection('users');
var_dump($result);
