Your support makes all the difference.Arsenal fans are claiming US presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton is “one of our own” after she appeared to out herself as a Gooner.
The Democratic candidate was spotted speaking to fans in the Fado Irish Pub, while on the campaign trail in Miami, Florida, which is decorated with Arsenal memorabilia including shirts, flags and scarves.
Florida is seen as one of the key states in the upcoming election against Republican Donald Trump, and while her appearance in an Arsenal-themed pub appears completely coincidental, it hasn’t stopped Gooners from claiming she belongs to the red half of north London.
One politician who is a confirmed Arsenal fan is Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, who is also the MP for Islington North.
Corbyn has often been spotted at games as well as featuring in the club programme from time-to-time, and is a Wenger supporter, speaking out when other fans call for him to resign.
