The Celtic striker might have been forced to the bench by Moussa Dembele, but his social media game remains on point

What could be more natural than settling down to dinner and making a quick Tweet when you notice one of your footballing heroes sitting just over your shoulder?

That’s exactly what one fan did when he went to TGI Fridays on Sunday evening and saw striker Leigh Griffiths – but he probably didn’t expect a reply!

The Twitter user took a selfie when he noticed the 26-year-old was sitting behind him, circling the forward and Tweeting: “@Leighgriff09 joining me an the bird for a TGI's #goals”

Griffiths, who has found himself behind Moussa Dembele in the pecking order in Brendan Rodgers’ side in recent times, offered a brilliant reply in kind, performing the same cheeky stunt.
