Songs and Chants about current and past Manchester United players
"Who put the ball in the German net?" - songs and chants about current and past Manchester United players

Manchester United players have always been treated well by the supporters when it comes to having their own songs and chants blasted out in the stadium to encourage them or recognise their excellent display on the pitch. King Eric said, "So much the better if my goals give you something to sing about. Nothing else is important!" and even now, years after he's finished playing football, the fans still sing about the legend of the '90's.
United supporters were, for many years, churning out new chants on a regular basis, often inspired by Pete Boyle. They then went into a bit of a fallow period but from 2013 have seriously picked up the pace again and are without doubt the most original and prolific composers of new songs and they regularly run through large chunks of their repertoire, including the celebration of many players long since retired.

Our list on these pages will give you a flavour ....

Patrice Evra
Adnan Januzaj (to the tune of 'Ooh Wakka Doo, Wakka Day' by Gilbert O'Sullivan)

I want to tell you,
I might as well do,
About a boy who can do anything,
He comes from Belgium,
His name is Adnan,
Januzaj, Januzaj, Januzaj!!

(Adnan has been a cult hero amongst the United faithful from the very start of his career. It's fitting, therefore, that he was given a unique and brilliant song after he'd played only a handful of games))

 
Adnan Januzaj (to the tune of 'Starman' by David Bowie)

There's a Starman,
On the left hand side,
He plays for Man United,
And his name is Januzaj

(Another song put out during Januzaj''s first few months in the first team squad)

Patrice Evra
Patrice Evra
The French full-back lhas become a favourite at Old Trafford with the fans and a first choice pick for Fergie. Surprisingly he's not got a song yet. In an interview on TV, Patrice said he loved the song the fans were singing about him to the tune of the La Marseillaise. It's a bit of a mystery as we've never heard it. He probably misheard it for the Eric song. However, if you've heard any Evra songs/chants sang at games, please contact us.
Owen Hargreaves

I Want Curly Hair Too (to the tune of 'Can't Take My Eyes Of You' by Frankie Valli)

Oh, Owen Hargreaves,

I saw my mate the other day,
He said to me, he'd seen the white Pele,

Wayne Rooney, Wayne Rooney, goes by the name of Wayne Rooney.
 

An Early Rooney song heard v Fenerbahce on his debut in September 2004
30 million, f*ckin' by'eck,
We've signed a Scouser,
who looks like Shrek
(not the most flattering song sang by United fans and was soon dropped. Was first heard at games during the media speculation about his switch to United, with different lyrics, 'we're signing a Scouser who looks like Shrek')

Viera - oh, oh, oh, oh-

It's Hard to Believe It's Not Scholes (to the tune of 'It's Magic by Pilot')

It's hard to believe it's not Scholes,
It's Carrick, you know.

(Whilst there is a modicum of irony in the chant, this affectionate tribute to Carrick was rolled out in the 2012-2103 season and came to serious attention when the United fans sang it non-stop for about 15 minutes at QPR in February 2013.

 

One Michael Carrick
One Michael Carrick -
There's only one Michael Carrick,

There's only one Michael Carr-ick!

Hear United sing
Viva Ronaldo
 
That Boy Ronaldo...
He plays on the left,
He plays on the right.
That Boy Ronaldo,
Makes England look shite!
(originally, the song was 'makes Beckham look shite!' which didn't sit easy with many United fans. After Portugal knocked out England in the World Cup, the lyrics were altered pleasing the large number of reds who fall into the anti-England camp)
 

There's Only One Ronaldo!
There's only one Ronaldo,
There's only one Ronaldo...

Carlos Tevez

Who's That Twat From Argentina?

Who's that Twat from Argentina?
Who's that money grabbing whore
Carlos Tevez is his name
And he hasn't got a brain
'cos he won't be winning trophies any more

(A classic example of "Hero to Zero". Tevez pursuit of a megabucks deal at city left the sourest of tastes in the mouths of the United fans, particularly when he appeared on billboards around Manchester immediately after his transfer to city. Compare the words of this to the original chant - below)

Carlos Tevez
Argentina
AR-GEN-TINA!
AR-GEN-TINA!
(this chant was originally used to wind up fans of teams with a reputation for being 'Little Ing-er-lunders', as United fans love to call them, following England's World Cup exit in 1998. It then became Juan Sebastian Veron's and later Gabriel Heinze's tune and a further excuse to wind up England fans! Fortunately, for United fans who fall into the anti-England camp, Carlos Tevez came along just as Heinze left and the song continued to be sang, winding up fans of clubs who travel with their club's name emblazoned on St George's crosses.)
 

Who's That Man From Argentina?
Who's that man from Argentina?
Who's that man they all adore?
Plays with Rooney, plays with Wes
He's our superstar Tevez
And forever at United he will score!
If you've heard any other Carlos Tevez songs or chants at games, contact us.
