The good thing about club friendlies is getting to see 18 different players on show for the evening's entertainment.

The good thing about Liverpool's club friendlies is to get to see David Ngog.

This young talent, who could be Ryan Babel's brother and is Jean-Alain Boumsong's cousin, has impressed so far. Granted, no real "big" games, so no real test, but he has looked like something special.

His ability to terrorize defenders and gracefully glide past them was a sight to behold. Two goals in two games and the future looks bright for our young French forward.

I will definitely be watching in keen anticipation to see if he can make the jump from reserve league into the first team.

    After observing him in the last two friendlies I am impressed. His vision to play in Nemeth V Valerenga was absolutely top drawer, first time ball into Nemeth's stride and to be honest he should have scored.

    Coupled alongside two nice finishes, he does look a potentially good player. Comfortable on the ball and with pace to burn, he just needs to visit the gym and increase upper body strength and I'm sure he will be ready for most premier league defenders.

    I agree Jeff. But luckily at 19 he can still develop the physical side of his game, right now I'm inclined to say that a Terry or Ferdinand or Carvalho would muscle him off the ball, but they sure as hell aren't going to catch him!
    thanks for the comment
