A reminder that 5 live Sport with Mark Chapman begins in 40 minutes and features live commentary of the League Cup match between MK Dons and Manchester United.

Now down at The New Den tonight we have Millwall, ninth in the Championship, against Southampton, who lost all those players - and a manager - to other teams in the close season, and currently lie 14th in the top flight.

Millwall did not have the best of preparations, losing their unbeaten record with a home defeat against Rotherham at the weekend, having started the season with three successive wins, while Saints drew 0-0 with West Brom and have scored only the one goal in their two league games thus far.

This is the third time they have been drawn together in the League Cup and the Lions have won just one of their last 12 matches against Southampton in all competitions.

Many thanks for your comments following Frank Lampard's international retirement. A mixed bag I think it's fair to conclude, a bit like his international career one could say.

Dean Storey:, external Devastated about Lampard!! Deserved captaincy of England years ago! Quality stats for a midfielder!

Kintu:, external I think it's the right time for him to retire. I don't think he will go down as an English great, but his contribution should be noted.

Amzod:, external The Lampard/Gerrard problem has finally been solved...they've both retired.

After being sent off twice in three days, Arsenal midfielder Patrick Vieira ended the week on a high on his day in 2000 with two goals in a 5-3 win over Charlton. Was he booked then for taking his shirt off though?

A selection of your Facebook comments on whether Frank Lampard should be considered an England great.

Samuel Deano: If Lampard isn't an England great, then there hasn't been an England great since 66

Ross Palgrave: For Chelsea, yes but England no. The last legend England had was Alan Shearer in my opinion. England, as a team have achieved nothing since Euro 96.

Matt Simper: Sadly not a legend. He goes down with Beckham, Gerrard, Ferdinand, Owen, Terry etc. as one that promised so much, yet never truly delivered.

Celtic are hopeful of finally concluding the loan signing of Wakaso Mubarak on Wednesday, BBC Scotland understands.

The one-year deal to bring the 24-year-old Ghanaian winger from Rubin Kazan has been held up for over a week by visa and work-permit issues. Those appear to be close to being resolved and the player could sign tomorrow.

Discussions are continuing with Serbian striker Stefan Scepovic over a permanent move from Sporting Gijon.

Kent's match against New Zealand A is abandoned without a ball bowled because of rain at Canterbury.

At Priestfield Stadium, Newcastle are the visitors to play Gillingham, 18th in League One. The two sides have only met once before, in a League Cup second-round tie in January 1977 when the Magpies won 2-1.

The form book is going to have to catapult out of the window for a shock to occur given these stats at out disposal. The Gills have gone 13 League Cup games without a clean sheet and last made it into the third round of the League Cup in 2005.

We've been asking you whether Frank Lampard will go down as an England great. Here is a selection of your thoughts from the BBC Sport Facebook page:, external

Colin Gray: I'm a Scotland supporter but must say that Frank was a loyal & good servant to England, I always enjoyed watching him play whether for country or club!

Stuart Cunliffe: Not an England great unless a major tournament is won - promised so much with Terry, Gerrard et al but always fell short.

Tom Peters: Lampard's commitment to England has been up there with the best. But, like so many England players, never reached the performance levels on the international stage.
