Since Liverpool‘s Domink Szobolszlai made the switch from RB Leipzig in the summer of 2023, he has borne the burden of leading the Reds' press, and in difficult moments during 2025-26, he has stepped up to the plate – evoking comparisons to the iconic Steven Gerrard.
Whether playing in midfield or at right-back, the 25-year-old has consistently delivered man-of-the match-worthy performances, not to mention his growing catalogue of free-kick goals that have earned the number eight a reputation as a true marksman from dead-ball situations.
To show their appreciation for the Hungary captain – who has now won Liverpool's player of the month award five times this season – the Anfield faithful have conjured a Dominik Szoboszlai chant.
However, its presence may be diminished at matches in the short term after a frustrated interaction between the versatile star and away supporters at the Etihad Stadium, following a 4-0 thrashing for Arne Slot's side on April 4.
In any case, read on as Football Ground Guide covers all you need to know about the Dominik Szoboszlai chant – one of the catchiest Liverpool football chants – ahead of the Reds' Premier League showdown with Crystal Palace on Saturday.
Dominik Szoboszlai chant, lyrics and tune
The Dominik Szobsoszclai chant is sung to the tune of ‘This Is the Life’ by Amy Macdonald. The lyrics to the chant are as follows:
When we’re singing his song,
And we’ll sing it all night,
When he’s passing from the left,
And he’s shooting from the right,
Where’s he gonna go,
Where’s he gonna go,
Dominik Szoboszlai!
Dominik Szoboszlai chant background
The song was created by Andy Hodgson, who has made a bit of a reputation for himself in recent years as being a Liverpool ‘chantwriter' at Taggy's, a pub near Anfield.
Hodgson has effectively taken over the mantle from Liverpool musician Jamie Webster, who used to do this sort of thing before he went mainstream.
From a lyrical point of view, this football chant doesn't reference anything specific to Szoboszlai, but the tune used is an original one. It perhaps feels like Hodgson decided that the player's name fitted with the chorus of the song and went from there.
Liverpool fans singing the Dominik Szoboszlai chant
FGG says: A good tune, but there's a reason it hasn't fully taken off
In a world where football fans often just rehash tunes that other clubs sing, I'm never going to criticise someone for coming up with something original.
However, there is a reason why this hasn't exploded at Anfield like other Liverpool chants created by someone on an acoustic guitar, and it's probably because the lyrics could be applicable to any footballer in the world.
