​Conte will continue with exuberant Chelsea goal celebrations

Antonio Conte has no intention of toning down his goal celebrations despite criticism from Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho earlier in the season.

Mourinho took exception to the Chelsea head coach geeing up the crowd when the Blues were already four ahead in a 4-0 win at Stamford Bridge in October.

"No, no. I don't think it's important. (There is) nothing we have to clarify with him," said Conte.

"I've shown at Chelsea, not only Chelsea, every team that I managed that I live the game with great passion. Sometimes I want to share my enthusiasm, my passion with my players, with my staff, also with my fans. I think it's normal."
