I try not to evaluate a dog unless asked by the owner in person, and never
on a public forum.
But, since you asked, I love the color, and head. I would have to see how
his temperament is, and watch him move.
To me, movement is what our breed was bred to do, herd sheep. And do it
all day long. To do that, they have to move correctly.
Bob Penny and I were in the ring together handling. He was stacking his
dog next to mine, (behind me as I remember). He said to me, "Whenever you
bring a dog into the ring, I know it can move."
I guess that is true, and maybe I do concentrate too much on movement.
But, I am old, and probably won't change.

There is little difference. The key is how the standards are
interpreted. In the FCI shows for so many
years they have promoted a different type of German shepherd. We in America
have interpreted our standard to reward a bitch like Rumor. It would be
difficult to say who is right.
We each have our standard and we interpreted it the way we do. It is up
to each judge to decide what is
correct. I have seen the FCI style dog shown at some of our AKC shows.
They don't do well. So, we should
not be surprised that Crufts feels that way.
