Eberechi Eze’s time at Arsenal so far has not quite lived up to the expectations of supporters, who were overjoyed when the England international arrived from Crystal Palace in the summer of 2025.
The move appeared to be a story with a perfect ending for the midfielder, having returned to the boyhood club that released him at the age of 13, but a series of inconsistent performances have left many fans feeling that the man they believed would complete their side has yet to deliver.
The Gunners' supporters wasted no time creating a chant for Eze, and the song carried even greater meaning given the dramatic circumstances surrounding his arrival.
At one stage, it seemed as though the midfielder might cross the North London divide to join Tottenham Hotspur, with the Lilywhites reportedly close to sealing a deal before Arsenal stepped in at the final moment to secure his signature.
Since joining the Gunners, Eze has rarely reached his best level, although he has enjoyed notable success when facing Spurs.
Five of his six Premier League goals this season have come against Tottenham, including a hat-trick at the Emirates Stadium in November 2025 and a brace in the reverse fixture in February 2026.
Those moments alone have given Arsenal fans something to celebrate, with Eze's chant echoing around the stadium whenever he gets the better of their fiercest rivals.
As such, the tune, inspired by Michael Buble’s song Sway, has become one of the most popular chants among the Gunners faithful.
In this article, we take a look at the full lyrics of the Eberechi Eze chant and the story behind how it became a favourite among Arsenal supporters.
Eberechi Eze chant lyrics and tune
Eze's chant is sung to the tune of ‘Sway' by Dean Martin, with the following lyrics:
“We can hear them crying at the Lane,
Ebere Eze, he scores again,
One call with Mik Arteta he said ‘wow',
F**k off Tottenham, I’m a Gooner now!”

Eze’s favourite song and its significance to his Arsenal journey
While we have looked into Eze’s chant, we thought it fitting to delve into the former Crystal Palace man’s favourite song and its significance to his journey at Arsenal.
For many supporters, the song became linked to Eze the moment his move to Arsenal was confirmed.
The song featured prominently in his announcement video, with the repeated line “let it all work out” setting the tone as he was unveiled at the Emirates shortly before a thumping win.
The track has followed Eze for some time, reflecting a career shaped by patience and perseverance after being released by Arsenal at a young age.
FGG says
It's not exactly the most original of chants – in fact, it's almost a word-for-word copy of Liverpool's Federico Chiesa song – but Arsenal fans won't really care. Indeed, the idea of it winding a few Liverpool fans up for its lack of originality is probably a bonus.
Catchy chants rarely remain the domain of one club for long nowadays, and Arsenal are not the first or last to fit this tune around one of their players; it's the latest song sweeping through stadiums up and down the country right now.
Throw in the opportunity to poke fun at Spurs too, and this makes it a pretty perfect chant for Gooners.
