Sheffield United 1-4 Leicester City: Islam Slimani, Demarai Gray and Ahmed Musa net in convincing Carabao Cup victory

Islam Slimani, Demarai Gray and Ahmed Musa reminded Leicester boss Craig Shakespeare of their capabilities by scoring the goals in a 4-1 Carabao Cup victory at Sheffield United.

None of the trio has started for the 2016 Premier League champions this season, but Gray's trickery, incision and cool second-half finish demonstrated why Bournemouth have been linked with him.

Slimani - last year a £28million capture from Sporting Lisbon - was maybe fortunate to be in a position to grab a double after somehow managing to avoid dismissal on the stroke of half-time.
