Many other fans replied with a string of laughing emojis.

Others replied with gifs off moonwalks and one even posted a Michael Jackson parody.

The former Wigan and Everton boss has been in charge of the Belgium national team since the summer of 2016.

Under his leadership the Red Devils made it to the semi-final of the World Cup in 2018 before losing out to eventual winners France.

The team have been ranked as the No1 team in world football for much of the 49-year-old's tenure, and currently sit behind only Brazil in the rankings.

However, that did not stop them from crashing out of the group stage in Qatar.

Their World Cup got off to a winning start with a 1-0 over Canada, despite a below par performance.

But they were then beaten 2-0 by Morocco before a 0-0 draw with Croatia sealed their fate.

Following the defeat to Morocco, sensational reports emerged suggesting star players Eden Hazard, Kevin de Bruyne and Jan Vertonghen had to be separated after a heated altercation in the dressing room.

Goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois denied the reports, and warned that the person who leaked the information would not play for the national team again.

They then showed a unified front ahead of their clash against Croatia, huddling in a circle in a show of solidarity.
