When I see the first picture, I see a phenotype I should ascribe to the English, as being (even phoenetically) the area of "germanic countries" from which many "Anglo-Saxons" came, in what appears to be their mass migration to modern-day England, after the Romans left Britain. This individual's features are rather unremarkable, other than the obvious narrow-headedness, though.

Dirk Kuyt looks very Dutch, Wout D'Heer could easily pass in England, i would say that Wout is mainly Nordic while Dirk is Tronder?

Both are mainly Keltic N. Wout looks more continental though and is much less Germanic looking, while Kuyt looks very Dutch / Nw Germanic.
