Fulham fullback Paul Konchesky will have no problem celebrating a goal against former club West Ham United.

Ex-Hammer Carlos Tevez refused to celebrate when he netted against them for Manchester City on Monday but the Cottagers head to the Boleyn Ground with both sides in the bottom four.

And Konchesky, 28, said: "It's business, it's football. And I'm speaking as a West Ham fan from Dagenham who used to stand on the terraces at Upton Park every week.

"Players have a right to celebrate a goal and I don't score that many for a start. It's an adrenalin rush and that kind of takes over.

"It's a big game coming up against West Ham, so why shouldn't I celebrate a goal?

"Carlos showed respect to West Ham but, to be fair, it was a long time ago now. There's no harm in celebrating a goal as long as you don't go to the lengths of Emmanuel Adebayor.

"I scored at Upton Park last year and celebrated. And if I score on Sunday, I'll do so again. I don't think the fans mind."
