We have been heavily linked with Koroma for the past 5 months. Getting a young and hungry cohort alongside some seasoned players should bring is the freshness that the club needs after two seasons of losing far more than winning.

Nice to make a signing where that teams fans are full of praise for him. Massive difference to last season. Puncheon I was more thinking of the summer window, last year.

It's not an exciting signing, but I sort of like that. A solid pro, with a lot of experience at this level and apparently a leader to boot. I said it'd may be underwhelming if he was for the first eleven, but I'm already backtracking 😄 If Schindler goes for a decent fee and following reading some of the Villa and Hull's fans comments, he could be a really smart signing. Agree with you, if they both go and he's first choice it's a big worry. Happy as a squad player but if Kongolo and Schindler both go it's a big worry for me.

You need to stop worrying and lower your expectations.
Happy as a squad player,,, This fellas a cracking centre half and he will be first choice.

If you were a Dutch International would you play second tier football ?
Same with Schindler, Champonship football with Town or back home with Schalke ?
Sadly they will both be gone, But that's football.

Far to many ifs and buts we will have to wait and see.

I actually think both Kongolo and Schindler will stay. That's not based on any credible information or owt, just my thoughts.

Would be interesting to know who was the lead on this - Jan, Deano, Huddy - or the kid with the abacus ?

To be fair his first 2 signings are Grant and Elphick. Liking the links with the quality lower league players such as Koroma and Brown too. Not sure why he is being patronised so much tbh.

Can we see some club giving us our money back for Kongolo? I can’t, he’s a good player and I like him but feel we paid too much.

With Tommy Elphick in I wonder if this means Kongolo is leaving? I already take Zanka as 'gone' so I wonder if this is a pre-emptive move to cover Kongolo being signed for a big transfer? After all Elphick at 31 would only sign up if he was pretty sure of being in the 1st team selection. Kongolo can play left back, but he is clearly a more natural centrehalf. He wouldn't fit into an attacking 433 that Siewert is wanting to play. Happy to have Tommy onboard though. Agree Kongolo is a better centre back, but he’s had good games at left back and attacked well, especially when he first signed and the team confidence was higher. We need a left back and Kongolo would be immense there at Championship level.

Not sure why he is being patronised so much tbh. It's because some people sit in this little bubble where football is the same as 15 years ago. There is a distrust of people who use analysis as it's just numbers and data. However, what analysis of data does, is to allow you to narrow down potential signings and then focus your scouting more appropriately. I know a lad who works for a different club and he has had to put a hell of a lot of hard work, most of it unpaid, to get himself through the door. The knowledge he has about players in this country is phenomenal. Analysis, used correctly, can give smaller clubs a bit more chance to compete.
