Gabriel Magalhães Chant Lyrics – Arsenal Fans’ New Song

Dec 23

Arsenal supporters have a new terrace favourite — a chant for Gabriel Magalhães that’s catchy, easy to learn, and built for big “away end” volume. If you’ve heard the “our number six…” line bouncing around social clips lately, this is the one.

Gabriel Magalhães Chant Lyrics

Chant: “You’ll Fall In Love (Our Number 6)”

You’ll fall in love,
I know you will.
Our number 6 is the King of Brazil!
Our centre-half, he’ll give you hell,
Our wall at the back is Gabriel!
Ole ole, ole ola!

Note: Lyrics can vary slightly by crowd (especially “centre-half/center half” and small phrasing tweaks), but the hook stays the same.

What’s the Chant About?

This song is pure love-letter energy for a defender — the kind of chant that makes you smile because it’s equal parts hype and appreciation. Arsenal fans are basically saying: “Yep, you’re going to love this guy too.”

“Our number 6” ties the chant directly to Gabriel’s shirt number.
“King of Brazil” is big, cheeky praise — turning a gritty centre-back into royalty.
“He’ll give you hell / our wall at the back” is the key point: Gabriel is a unit, and attackers know it.

Why It’s Catching On So Fast

Some chants are complicated and only the diehards learn them. This one spreads because it checks the three boxes that matter: simple lyrics, strong hook, and clear purpose.

Easy to sing in a big group (short lines, natural rhythm, repeatable ending).
Defender appreciation (fans love giving flowers to the “do the dirty work” players).
Instant identity (the “number 6 / Brazil” combo makes it unmistakably Gabriel).

When Fans Sing It

You’ll typically hear it in the moments when a centre-back is doing centre-back things: after a crunching challenge, a big header, a last-ditch block, or when Arsenal are protecting a lead and the crowd wants to crank the pressure up.

After a big defensive sequence (block → clearance → roar → chant starts)
During long spells of pressure when the crowd wants to steady the back line
At away matches when Arsenal fans want something loud and unified

Tune / Melody

The melody is designed for the stands: a straightforward sing-along with an “Ole ole” finish that lets the whole crowd jump in even if they only know the ending. It’s the kind of chant that sounds bigger with every repetition.

FAQ

Is this chant new?

It’s a relatively new one in the sense that it’s been spreading quickly through fan clips and matchday moments — and once a chant starts popping up consistently home and away, it’s basically “in the songbook.”

Do the lyrics ever change?

Yep — that’s normal for terrace songs. You’ll hear small variations depending on the section of the crowd, but the core lines (“our number 6… King of Brazil… Gabriel”) stay consistent.

Why do defenders’ chants matter?

Because it signals what fans value. Goals get headlines — but clean sheets win titles. Chants like this are the crowd’s way of rewarding the work that doesn’t always show up in highlight reels.
