[Corvus]

I am not going to classify them, but I want to tell you sht.
I have a big affinity for Argentina and I really like this team.
Apart from Messi who is overrated but still symphatic this is the best
football team to watch worldwide.

[Apina]

Most look like Southern Europeans (Spanish and Italians), except 2 and 7 (Amerindian mix) and 5 (black mix).

Messi and 11 are obvious mestizos too.

[memobekes]

Messi and 11 are obvious mestizos too.
I wouldn't reserve the term "obvious" though.

If you compare him to Sergio Aguero (2) and Angel Di Maria (number 7), both Mestizos, then the difference is rather obvious.

Also, a Mestizo in Latin America, usually refers to the offspring of one European and one Native American parent (50/50).

Messi's parents on the other hand, do not fit this criteria strictly. His mother displays some Amerindian traits but is pred. European in race, his father a European anyway:

11 looks white in my opinion... :confused:

^I'm not sure. I think he shows slight Amerindian traits (cheekbones)

Well that means he's a castizo. He looks mixed regardless.

[Pallantides]

11 looks Central/North European to me. 10 could also pass here.

[jerney]

Nothing Amerindian about 11 imo. High cheekbones are especially common among northern Europeans

[Moonbird]

As a whole they look more European than many teams from Europe...:rolleyes:

[Corvus]

Most of them could pass in Italy or Spain.
But I also think that a little bit Mestizzo genes combined with SouthernEuropeans
is the reasons why they are the best footballers of the world apart
from the Germans obviously :D

[aherne]

#5 looks like obvious mestizo.

[Sikeliot]

Most of them look northern Italian, but I can identify 3 of them who look mixed.

[Vasconcelos]

Fernando Gago (#1) could almost be my long lost brother.

He could pass in Greece.

[Willem]

Atlanto-Meds and Castizos mainly.

[Sharkeatpeople]

mostly Dinarid and Med elements with some Native and Cm,#12 looks Atlantid &Cm,Messi Dinaro-Med.

[spanish catalan]

most atlanto med/atlanto+amerindian
