David Ngog, Liverpool FC[LNB]DANIEL AGGER today tipped matchwinner David Ngog to make it to the top after he got Roy Hodgson's reign as Liverpool manager off to a flying start.[LNB]The young French striker scored either side of half-time last night to secure a 2-0 victory for the Reds against FK Rabotnicki that has made the second leg of their Europa League third qualifying round tie at Anfield a formality next week.[LNB]Aside from his goals, Ngog impressed in the way he led the line and there is little doubt, judging from his physical appearance, that has been on an intensive programme this summer to strengthen his spindly frame.[LNB]Agger - who was making his first appearance in Skopje after his summer break - was taken with Ngog's performance and believes he will mature into more than just a deputy for Fernando Torres if he applies himself correctly.[LNB] 'We have got to give David credit for the two goals. He took them very well - it was a very good performance,' said Agger, who coasted through the 72 minutes he played.[LNB]'He was there in the right place at the right time, which is what all good strikers do. He is a good player and has the qualities but he knows that he still has a bit to learn.[LNB]'I know that he works hard every day but if he continues to work hard then he will come on a long way. But he has to keep working hard, as every one of us is doing, if he wants to get there.'
