Our man watched the Liverpool v Villarreal game on the big telly in the club after snooker, mostly to see what all the fuss was about with this Ngumoha young fella. Four-three. Honestly. He has opinions on every bit of it, and most of them circle back to Bohs one way or another, but sure look, that's always the way with him.

Liverpool FC vs Villarreal CF thoughts — 6 items
Name	Talking Point	What Happened	My Take	Relevance to Bohs
1Rio Ngumoha's performance	—	—	—	—
2Liverpool 4-3 Villarreal final score	The scoreline itself	Liverpool came from two goals down to win 4-3 at Anfield in the Champions League	Four-three is not defending, that's basketball. But sure look, they won it	We'd take a seven-goal thriller at Dalymount any night of the week
3Alexis Mac Allister's double	Mac Allister's two headers turning the tie	Alexis Mac Allister scored twice, including a header before half-time, to lead the comeback	A midfielder getting two headers tells you the back line wasn't marking anyone, but it won the game	We'd sell a kidney for a midfielder who chips in with goals like that
4Villarreal's late fightback through Oluwaseyi	Oluwaseyi pulling it back to 4-3	Villarreal substitute Tani Oluwaseyi scored late to make it 4-3 and set up a nervy finish	Liverpool nearly made a mess of a comfortable lead. Some things never change in this game, big clubs included	At least we're not the only ones who struggle to see out a match
5Liverpool's perfect Champions League start	Three wins from three in the league phase	The win kept Liverpool on nine points from three games in this season's Champions League	Winning ugly three times in a row is still winning. The League of Ireland could learn that lesson	Bohs are chasing their own good run domestically, so there's a small bit in common
6Andoni Iraola's post-match comments	Iraola explaining the turnaround at the press conference	Manager Andoni Iraola spoke after the game about how his side surged back from two goals down	Managers always have the right words after a win. Would love to hear what he'd have said at 2-0 down to Drogheda	Alan Reynolds could do worse than study how a two-goal deficit gets turned around
