All time best football XI according to AI ChatGPT

Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo both make the squad

There are many other world-class players that have graced the football pitch in addition to Zidane, Messi, and Ronaldo in the eleven players that make up AI Chat GPT's all time greatest football XI. Although several football legends have been overlooked, here is the all time best football XI picked by AI ChatGPT:

Gianluigi Buffon

He is frequently considered as one of the best goalkeepers in history. One of the rare players with over 1,100 verified professional outings is him.

Buffon's club career officially began in 1995 with Parma, where he made his Serie A debut. He quickly gained a spot in the starting lineup and a reputation as one of Italy's most promising young goalkeepers. With the exception of the Champions League, the famous goalie won every conceivable title with Juventus and PSG.

Cafu

He is recognised to be among the finest full-backs of all times, a few of the finest defenders to ever compete in Serie A, and one of the outstanding Brazilian and South American footballers of his period. He is renowned for his speed and strong attacking runs up the right wing. With 142 appearances, he also holds the record for most caps for the Brazil national team.

Cafu competed at the club level in Brazil, Spain, and Italy, winning several national and international championships.

Franco Baresi

He is regarded as one of the sport's all-time greatest defenders. On the list of the top 100 soccer players of the 20th century published by World Soccer magazine, he came in at number 19. With Milan, he won two European Super Cups, three UEFA Champions League championships, six Serie A crowns, four Supercoppa Italiana trophies, and two Intercontinental Cups.

Franz Beckenbauer

Football's strikers receive all the attention, as seen by this list, thus it takes a really talented defensive player to make the list of the best ever.

Franz Beckenbauer most certainly fits the definition, having accomplished all that he could accomplish for West Germany and Bayern Munich at the club and international levels, respectively. When Bayern's outstanding side of the middle of the 1970s won three straight matches, "Der Kaiser" made history by becoming the first captain to win the European Cup three times.

Paolo Maldini

He is recognised as one of history's finest defenders. He was known as "Il Capitano" for many years while serving as the Milan and Italy captain ("The Captain"). With 647 appearances, Maldini set a record for the most games played in Serie A until Gianluigi Buffon passed him in 2020. He is now Milan's technical director and a co-owner of Miami FC in the USL Championship.

Prior to his retirement at the age of 41 in 2009, Maldini played for Milan in the Serie A for all 25 seasons of his playing career. With Milan, he won 26 trophies, including five European Cups and two Intercontinental Cups. He also won seven Serie A championships, one Coppa Italia, five Supercoppa Italiana crowns, five European/UEFA Super Cups, and one European Cup.

Diego Maradona 

The 1986 World Cup encounter against England against perhaps represented Diego Maradona's full demeanour as a player and person. The Argentine maestro was a clever genius who scored the best goals in history by tying up the English defence.

Maradona nearly single-handedly carried Napoli to two Serie A championships when he was there. The Naples mob warmed to the Argentine genius and took a look to him as the saviour during those years, when he was at his most devastating.

Zinedine Zidane

Zidane, the 1998 Ballon d'Or winner, has a tremendously fruitful career with both Juventus and Real Madrid. Yet, it was Zidane's brilliance against Brazil in the 1998 World Cup final that initially cemented his reputation as a player of the highest calibre.

Zidane became an instant hero and idol when he scored a brace of headed goals in the championship match to give France their long-awaited first World Cup victory over the odds-on favourites Brazil.

Johan Cruyff

Johan Cruyff has had the greatest effect on the sport in history, more so than any other player or individual. Cruyff was a pioneer who introduced the great concept of "total football" to Ajax, Barcelona, and the Netherlands' national team. He also had a storied career for both his clubs and his country, playing some exquisite football in the process.

Cruyff is regarded as a cult icon for leading the Catalan giants to their first league title in 14 years shortly after joining them, and it was he who initially introduced the tiki-taka and beautiful football ethos at the Camp Nou.

Lionel Messi

Together with Cristiano Ronaldo, ex-Barcelona star Lionel Messi is unquestionably one of the finest players of our age. Messi initially set up himself as one of the best forwards to ever dominate the game under the guidance of Frank Rijkaard and then, more crucially, under Pep Guardiola after breaking onto the scene in 2005 as a fresh-faced La Masia child.

Pele 

Pele, a football hero from Brazil, is largely recognised as the one of the best player to ever play the game. The fact that he has won more World Cups (3) than any other player should be sufficient evidence to place the Brazilian at the top of this list.

Pele is oen of the best goal scorer in history and the centre of the attack for both club and nation. He is the only player with more than 1200 senior goals, which speaks much about his outstanding goal-scoring statistics.

Cristiano Ronaldo

Cristiano Ronaldo was identified by Sir Alex Ferguson while a highly intelligent gifted youngster at Sporting CP. It was at Manchester United that the Portuguese superstar initially established his reputation as one of the finest players of our age.

Ronaldo has often stepped up when it has counted most and demonstrated to the world what he is capable of, whether it was by scoring the winning penalty in a Champions League final penalty shoot-out or by scoring an important goal in the Euro 2016 semifinal.
