Brendan Rodgers encourages Griffiths to show more ‘humility’ 

Asked about the player's apparent belief that he's now No 1 striker, boss Brendan Rodgers said: "No, he doesn't need to do that. I spoke to him on that and he didn't do it the other night (at St Johnstone).

"He had about five other things he did. I was watching him. When he scored he pointed to his shirt, he made a heart, he blew a kiss and he gave me a hug. So he got them all in there in one go!", Rodgers told the 'Daily Mail'.

Lee Griffiths has a customary 'number one' celebration, which Rodgers has noticed before. 

"I can understand the first time he did it," Rodgers recalled of Griffiths' 'No1' celebration. 'It was a bit of frustration really: with Celtic, Scotland, personal life, everything.

"But no, it's about humility. It's not about one person, this team is very much about the collective and he knows that. I understand at times there's a wee bit of frustration but I maintain he's a good boy when his focus is right on it consistently, and he will always score goals."

This is more like the 40-goal hero of Ronny Deila's last season.

"I think it all comes together with Leigh in terms of his fitness," Rodgers added.

"He's working hard on his actual physicality, because in this team you have to run with and without the ball. And of course what he does naturally, and can do with his eyes closed, is score goals.

'"His goal record is incredible really, his goals to games ratio at a club of this size. It's just that constant reminder of his work.

"He could have had a hat-trick the other night but his movement was good, he worked hard, pressed the game, and eventually his goal was probably the most difficult chance he had but he took it. Then he probably lost about a kilo on his celebration, running around the pitch."
