N.B. Yes I know that there are more blond German footballers than English ones. While that is partly explained by the fact that Germans are as a whole blonder than English people anyway, there is also the fact that the German football team is still somewhat whiter than the English football team.

I always had the image that germans are closer to the scando look, especially the Northern ones. Judging by these photos they pass equally as well.

Any blond north european passes in scandinavia, they all pass there, those germans are blonder than the Brits though.

Most of the white England 2018 world cup squad where blondish were they not? like 5 blondish players in the starting lineup (kane, pickford, dier, henderson, trippier, vardy, hart) but not a single really pure blonde, german team had less % blondes but more really blonde players.

Well I think that Germans have more of both extremes than the English - more blond Scandinavian-like types but also more truly Med types - and both my threads indicate this.

The Germans, they're more "Baltoid"-like than the British and Scandinavia is full of Nordo-Baltoid types... Probably the most common phenotype in Sweden.

Would you agree that Eric Dier is the most German-looking one of the English footballers?

The Germans have Baltic/Alpine features, much more than the English who are predominantly Nordic looking with very, very minor Continental Mediterranean admixture in two of them. The Germans pass better in the Nordic countries because Baltic is a much, much stronger component there than in England.

The Blade

The Germans look more Scandinavian due to lower Celtic and higher Baltic input.

Both groups can pass, Germans more so.

However even some of the Germans of this sample have other elements (Alpine, Dinarid) in their phenotype and not all are 100% Nordics.

What I mean by that is they lack the quintessential Scandinavian look which is that of Tronder or Hallstatt nordid.

Most passable of the Germans

Kane is a Kelto-Hallstatt mix. Many Northwestern Germanics belong to purely Nordic types, not all are of CM derivation.
As for gracility, I think that some of the types you call gracile from both Southern and Northern Europe are at least intermediate in this regard.
Harry Kane has pretty normal height/weight ratio and musculature.
Dude is 1,88 m. tall and weighs 86 kg.

On the other hand, Peter Crouch is an example of a truly gracile and skinny kind of Nordic, being 201 cm. tall and only 75 kg. No muscles.
It's even more amazing because athletes are normally robust than the average for their population but this isn't his case:

Germans have more real celtic (halstatt) input than brits, brits are mostly proto-north indo european bell beaker/nordwestbloc, unless celtic just means british isles people now. Always a confusing term.

Atlantid. Face is a normal Aurignacid one but still his bizygomatic breadth is probably 30% bigger than Crouch's.
Would be an average dude without the trainings but still much more robust than the thin-framed Peter.

I'll mention a few that pass well in scandinavia.
Forget the others they don't pass in scandinavia at all.

Jamie Vardy: Very strong pass in Denmark

Naturally, that's why English don't look much like Swedes and many Germans (too much Baltic pull) but share some resemblance with Norwegians and Danes.

Interesting, I've never thought of the English aesthetic in quite that same way (but I like the notion of the "Baltid" as delineator)..

Germans, of the national Teams, Germans have more looks that I would say are more common(Baltids and Tronders I think) in Scandinavia like Leno, Neuer, Ter Stegen, Brandt, Klostermann, Baumann, etc.
While English players still have a distinct British Isles look, and some of the Players on the Team are not blond, lol.

Germans and Scandinavians are closer to one another than either is to Brits. Not that they're far from Brits, though, but there are some British facial features that are non-existent in Scandinavia like Paul McCartney.

Germans due to general proximity - N Germany is literally connected to Denmark, England itself as an ethonym is formed from people who crossed a sea in boats.

Football in Eng is strongly working class, with a lot of Irish input too, football is particularly strong in north western urban areas, Liverpool and Manchester had a lot of Irish immigration. Michael Keane, Harry McGuire are partly Irish, like Paul McCartney, who is from Liverpool of course.

Also Germany has more Baltid input which isn't very common in Eng

Germans have higher cheekbones than Brits and have more robust lower faces, and some very minor Slavic/Baltic look. Scandinavians seem similar to the Germans but don't have the same level of robustness and also don't often have high cheekbones. Compare Boris Becker and Stefan Edberg and Harry Kane.

I agree but Harry Kane is half Irish. Jordan Pickford is a better example for what you are saying.

Germans in general I'd say. I was scrolling through instagram killing time and was on this Danish page and saw tones of Danish folks and I thought they looked very (North/West) German.

Germans are probably closer to Danes and Swedes while England might be closer to Norway than Germans are.
