Is this really a fixed question? According to UEFA's rules:

Each club is entitled to register an unlimited number of players on List B during the season. The list must be submitted by no later than midnight CET on the day before the match in question.


So there's no such thing as 'being included on a B List' - players are just arbitrarily added as and when the club sees fit.

There is a current B list of 20 registered for the Tournament Phase and all our eligible players are included with 3 exceptions. There was also a B list submitted for the Qualifying Phase which contained those same names plus 4 more who have now all gone out on season long loans.

So the question is not fixed and still needs answering. There is nothing arbitrary about it by the way.

Well done although I could be wrong! Brahim and Boadu are IMO eligible, both signed in 2013. Kigbu is not eligible I think, not under contract for two years, same with Diallo.

Really wish Boadu could get fit. Seriously talented footballer imo who could well have been knocking on the first team door but for this long injury.

Was this the team we sent a bunch of short term loanee's to?

I thought it was Rotherham but I could be mistaken.

These players all signed permanently for Huddersfield as their first club after leaving City, as far as I know. Facey and Barker both had loan spells at Rotherham last season but they are still on our books of course.

Correct, according to Transfermkt Jordy joined Huddersfield from City in July 2015 for £183K. Apparently, they loaned him to Wigan for £171K then Walsall for £170K then to Bradford for £213K until the end of this season. How much City get out of those loan fees is anybody's guess but I reckon not much and probably zero.
One more to get. Here's a clue, he got booked against Wigan on Monday night.
