Supporters of Celtic have recently reacted to some comments from Scottish striker Leigh Griffiths which were shared on Twitter by the club.

In their most recent outing, Neil Lennon’s side defeated Hamilton Academical 3-0 at the Fountain of Youth Stadium (per Transfermarkt).

On the day, Griffiths, who is valued at £1.8 million (as per Transfermarkt), was one of the names on the scoresheet as he added to Odsonne Edouard’s opener before David Turnbull bagged the Bhoys’ third.

Following the match, the 30-year-old frontman spoke to the club’s media and what he had to say was shared on Twitter by Celtic.

He said: “It’s going well so far and I hope to keep the momentum going. As long as the team’s picking up three points, I don’t really care who scores!”

Following these comments, lots of Celtic fans flocked to them to air their thoughts.
