In April 2013, Marca newspaper conducted a poll asking fans to choose the best XI of all time. The results of the poll showed that the concept of "the moment" in soccer is very strong, for example, the 20-year-old Varane, who has not been in the starting lineup for a long time, was also voted as the best player of all time.

Fans included in the best OF lineup.
In the goalkeeper's position, Marca offered the three main options of Ilgna, Bisari and Dominguez, with as many as 72.4% of fans choosing Ilgna. The German won the league title in his debut season at Real Madrid under Fabio Capello, and has since won another La Liga title in Madrid, and has twice helped the team win the European Champions Cup during his playing career. It is worth noting that Irgina also received the highest number of votes out of all the players, which shows that Real Madrid fans recognize him.
This all-time best outside back lineup is in a 343 formation, and the three defenders chosen by the fans are Cannavaro, Varane and Robert Carlos, with Carlos receiving 32.1% of the vote, Varane 13.8% and Cannavaro 10.2%. Varane's inclusion was quite a surprise, as he is hardly among the best in terms of historical merit or length of playing time, but it is the present moment that concerns fans the most in soccer, which gives an edge to the young French center backs who have been performing well in this recent phase of the game. Pepe, Panucci, Brettner, Marcelo and others failed to get enough votes.
The top four midfielders chosen by the fans are Zinedine Zidane, Redondo, Figo and Laudrup. Even though Makelele, Seedorf, Schuster, Kopa, and Ozil are good enough, they cannot be compared to these four superstars in terms of the impression they make on the fans. These four stars are synonymous with magic, art, and creativity, and they have taken soccer to a new level.
In terms of strikers, Real Madrid fans chose Crowe, Di Stefano and Ronaldo. although Hugo Sanchez has won many top scorer trophies, Puskás, Fanny, Zamorano, Iguaín and Mijatović have also left their mark on Real Madrid, they are still a notch below in the minds of the fans when compared to Crowe, Di Stefano and Ronaldo. crowe and Varane are also the Real Madrid active players in the best foreign players in the history of the lineup of the only two.
