B-List?!?!

dont know what it is, but why the heaven is PATO on it?

and I expected Oddo to be left out from the CL squad list... lol

edit:
oh, a B-List is for players under 21, who don't have to be registered because of their age, lol

Yes, of course... Pato and also our Primavera players can play CL games...

i'm guessing the B-List are players they can pull from if they want to.

say one of the 4 strikers needs to rest, pato can replace them.

i take this as saying that pato will probably play more serie a games.

could be completely wrong though.

List-B doesn't stand for players who are backups or players who will play less... it has to do with the fact there is a limit of amount of players that can go on list A, and Pato is someone who can go to list B since he is young enough for it while the others (those from list A) aren't.

Yes that was my first thought initially, but it doesn't make too much sense, right?

There's probably more to it that we haven't figured out.

Yeah, it's just smart squad management putting Pato on the B List.
