Del Gota looks Dutch
Rossi looks Italian just light, his West Asian influence (Probadly ancient Anatolian) is visible.

[Rocinante]

David De Gea by a large margin IMHO.

David De Gea by a large margin IMHO.

How come?

[Rocinante]

How come?

David De Gea can pass as a Britt Kelto-Nordid, don't you think? Also I can't imagine De Rossi outside Italy or Greece.

[Benyzero]

The first picture he looks like garreth bale, on the second the mediterraen is more visible, but not that much.

[Blondie]

de Gea by far

IMO both look essentially like depigmented Southern Europeans - de Gea is very Gracile while de Rossi has a very Roman, Dinaric face. Therefore, it is interesting to see which of the two do people perceive to be (marginally) more Northern-looking.

David de gea for me passes better. Facial feature of De Rossi looks more southern shifted

Neither would evade my Wogdar. Both look typical of their respective countries Imo, just light complexioned. I know of quite a few light Southerners living here, but their features always stand out to me. But, the average person often only looks at complexion unless extreme features are involved. So, de Gea would probably sway many here.

De Gea

But this is not a very interesting comparison...De Rossi has uber italian face while De Gea looks more generic....you should have picked a less specific italian

My answer : none of those two players.

De Rossi is master race southern Euro. De Gea would pass better in north.

Dinaric phenotypes are present all over Europe bad troll.

And De Gea doesn't look Dutch, if you think so it's that you don't know how a Dutch look like.

[Dr_Maul]

Bad pics, on the field De Gea looks like a generic Spaniard

[aynora]

Definitely the first one. My sister and I once saw him on TV and we both instantly thought he looks very British. The second one doesn't look Northern European at all imo.

[The Blade]

David De Gea.

With more natural light (and with his girlfriend) :

The issue with Rossi is his quite italian nose.

[Latinus]

I think David de Gea looks more northern shifted, while Daniele de Rossi looks simply like a depigmented/lighter Italian.
