Manager Rafael Benítez hailed his scouting network after his signing, saying that "They are finding players like Ngog, players with quality who are not a high price". Ngog played his first game for Liverpool in a friendly game against Villarreal on 30 July 2008 and scored his first goal one game later against Rangers in another pre-season friendly. He then followed this up by scoring Liverpool's final goal in their next pre-season friendly, a 4–1 win over Norwegian side Vålerenga. He made his Premier League debut against Aston Villa, coming on as a substitute for Fernando Torres. Ngog scored his first goal for Liverpool in their 3–1 victory over PSV in the group stages of the UEFA Champions League.

In November 2009, Ngog was approached to play for Cameroon, despite having already represented France at youth levels. The then Liverpool striker said: "I have had contact with the Cameroonian federation. Now I need some time to think about things. I'm very flattered." In February 2010, with Cameroon preparing for the 2010 World Cup, Cameroon's Minister of Sports, Michel Zoah, met with Ngog's father on two occasions to try and convince the player to switch allegiances. A few months later, in May, Ngog was not included in Cameroon's preliminary squad for the World Cup. When asked why, Cameroon coach Paul Le Guen said that Ngog had insisted on a starting spot with the Indomitable Lions. However, Ngog refuted the claims.

David Philippe Henri Ngog was born on 1 April 1989 in Gennevilliers, Hauts-de-Seine, to a Cameroonian father and a French mother. He holds both French and Cameroonian nationalities. He is the cousin of former French international player Jean-Alain Boumsong.
