MLS All-Time Best XI

MLS All-Time Best XI

In 2005, as part of its tenth anniversary celebrations, Major League Soccer, the United States' top soccer league, named its All-Time Best XI, a selection of the best eleven players in the history of the league. The winners were chosen by a combination of voting that included online voting on the league's official website, media votes, and MLS coaches and general managers.

The All-Time Best XI team was chosen from a pool of 78 players comprised of players who were previous "Best XI" yearly selections or who were named to at least three All-Star Games since the inaugural season in 1996. The following is a list of the players selected.
