I generally agree, although I think the guys you dubbed Paleo-Atlantid, Brunn and West Baltid are rather Faelid and/or Borreby.

I think you may be right, don't really know about being correct on the baltids though a few look definitely eastern

[Immanenz]

Nordids, some Subnordid/Atlantids a few Cm influences but much less than the Squad from 1974- its a very drastic difference actually

Agreed, the squad from 1974 is much more Phalian/CM. Same applies with the current German squad.

[Oliver109]

What stands out to me is that as a group these are not particularly lighter than the northern French or central Euros in general bar a few.

yeah- atlhough the 74 Gerrman 2/3 came from NW Germany- nowadays the talents come from everywhere. Idk you maybe need more Speed/ Agility these days (even for position like Defensive Midfielder etc- like De Jong- he is technically like a 8/10 playing in the back), so less robust build guys end up in football.

Yeah, but's also just a general trend I'm seeing that CM types are becoming rarer generally because of sexual selection (Borreby, Brunn).. Football doesn't rely as much on strength as it did in the past so there's something to say for that.

There is certainly a trend for less rougher features- both in men and women, i agree

I disagree. They are fairer than a group of Northern French, Swiss or even British people would be, even if they aren't quite at Scandinavian levels of blondness either. Also, I agree with those who say they are perhaps thinner and less robust than expected.

Also, since when was Kenneth Taylor a Dutch name? :confused:

He explicitly said that his parents are both Dutch but that he's unsure of the origin of his family surname. English first name's are becoming increasingly more popular in the Netherlands.

Vincent Janssen is yummy
