If it hasn’t been done already, surely the simple solution for a song for Fab is to recycle the old Uwe Hünemeier one?

(To the tune of Allez, Allez, Allez)

Fab played at Bayern Munich,
They thought he was two bob,
So he rocked up at St.Pauli,
And took them to the top,

He got a call from Tony,
And went to Sussex by the Sea,
He came to lead the Albion,
To replace De Zerbi,

First he smashed United,
Then beat Man City too,
And when we get to Europe,
He’ll get a new tattoo.

Allez, Allez, Allez.



(Okay, I know it's shit and is already used by Liverpool, Villa and Arsenal, but it was fun to do)

A few of us tried to get this going at Liverpool, but without much joy. It's the obvious choice. I find it bizarre we haven't sung anything for him yet. Seems to be a bit of disconnect between Fab and the fans, but no idea why.

There isn't, the bloke's been in our away end at Palace.

It's the style for German coaches to let the players take credit with the fans when we win. He was very uncomfortable at Everton when the players got him to come over.

That's not quite what I mean. I think he's fantastic, as I'm sure most fans do. I'm just a little perplexed – and sad – why we're not chanting his name yet. It can't just be because he's not a mad Italian who doesn't do knee slides when we score.

Fair enough, I agree he needs a song!

…how about something a bit German…?

Hürzeler is our coach and we’re playing good
We’re gonna win the Premier League - that’s understood
You can keep yer Pep and keep yer Arteta
Forget yer Arne Slot ‘cos Fabian’s way better

In a nutshell, because the words "Fabian Hürzeler" would have been a struggle for even Lennon & McCartney or Rodgers & Hammerstein to fit into a song.

"There's only one Fabian Hürzeler" doesn't even work.

We had a fantastic song for Uwe Hunemeier that works just as well! "There's only one Fab Hurzeler" works for your example.

His surname always makes me think of the song Umbrella. (No Idea why, but his full name always makes me think of the Combine Harvester song 😫)

We've got super Fabian Hurzeler
He knows exactly what we need
About two fewer syllables in his surname.

Keep going. It will work eventually.

(using the 'Mo Salah, running down the wings' chant)

Hur-ze-ler, Hur-ze-ler,
Notching up the wins


Second line [possibly] needs work.

There could be something in this one, repeated a few times with a different second line each time.

Easy enough for the Amex crowd too, could be a loud one.
