"He [Cowley] told me he needs me in two positions," said Kongolo.
"And I said where the coach needs me, I will be there, I will give everything.
"But we have to focus on the next game now."
Kongolo feels he has been adapting well to Cowley's methods, adding: "The training has been very technical, we know how we have to play.
"We spent a lot of time in meetings but it is going well.

Kongolo is experiencing his first taste of the Championship after joining the Terriers during their two-year stay in the top flight.
The Netherlands international played 45 times in the Premier League and feels the Championship offers a more "direct" style.
He said: "In the Premier League you play against teams who play more football.

"But in the Championship you have to give everything.
"We have not had a great start so we need to stick together and try to win every game, because we have a lot of quality in the team."
Huddersfield travel to unbeaten West Bromwich Albion tomorrow afternoon, aiming to end their near seven-month wait for a competitive win.
The Terriers last victory came in a 1-0 success over Wolverhampton Wanderers at the end of February.

"Every week is a big test," insisted Kongolo.
"We go to West Brom to win the game because I trust the squad, I trust the quality in the team.
"Every week I want to win. This season we haven't had a great start but I believe that we can start to win more games."
