In celebration of Real Salt Lake’s first 11 seasons, we are honoring the club’s all-time Best XI and YOU can let your voice heard.
Longtime Real Salt Lake radio host Jeremy Horton offered his take on the all-time list:
GK Nick Rimando - Easiest decision on the day
DF Chris Wingert - With 235 appearances for the Claret-and-Cobalt, he is one of RSL's true ironmen
DF Nat Borchers - Nat was a mainstay for the best defenses in RSL's history
DF Eddie Pope - "Pope Eddie" was only with RSL for 3 years, but it's hard to leave arguably the best center back America has ever produced off the list
DF Jamison Olave - For years was the most feared defender in MLS, named to two all-star teams, and won Defender of the Year in 2010
MF Kyle Beckerman - Could be the best defensive midfielder in MLS history, and has been the face of RSL for the better part of a decade
MF Andy Williams - Before he was a coach, "Bomma" was one of the most creative midfielders RSL has ever seen
MF Javier Morales - RSL's all-time assist leader (77), Morales is one of the best true #10's to ever grace the league, and redefined the attacking midfielder role in MLS
FW Alvaro Saborio - Can't leave the team's all-time leading scorer (76) off the list
FW Robbie Findley - From 2007-10, he scored at a torrid pace and led RSL to the 2009 MLS Cup
FW Jason Kreis - Only donned the claret-and-cobalt for two and a half years, but he was priceless to the franchise which earns him a spot in my Best XI
