Additional Comments





Ngoo is a big strong player, but he lacks technique. He is a poor passer, only decent in the air and his finishing is poor. He had a good loan at Hearts and used strength, power and height to advantage, and a move, perhaps on loan, becomes. I cannot see him getting a first team chance.
