Riyad Mahrez inspired Leicester to breeze past toothless Brighton as the Foxes cruised to a 2-0 win.
Shinji Okazaki cashed in on goalkeeper Matt Ryan's error after just 52 seconds to set the tone at the King Power Stadium.
Harry Maguire then netted on his home debut as Craig Shakespeare's men strolled to their first win of the season on Saturday.

He was back to the form which earned him the PFA Player of the Year award in 2016 during Leicester's shock title success.
Brighton had no answer to him, barely making a dent in Leicester's game plan, and, despite spending around £40m this summer, looked ill-equipped to deal with the demands of the Premier League.
