David De Geahas seemingly made a not-so-subtle did at Erik ten Hag after he was sacked as Manchester United manager.
The Dutchman was dismissed by United chiefs on Monday as he was summoned to a morning meeting at Carrington and informed his time as boss was over.
The decision to axe the Dutchman after two-and-a-half years in charge came after Sunday's defeat at West Ham left United in 14th place in the Premier League.
And the 54-year-old made a swift exit from Manchester as he was spotted being picked up by a chauffeur and taken to Manchester airport before boarding a flight headed to Amsterdam.
And De Gea was pulling no punches as he took to X to share a pinched fingers emoji, seemingly aiming a dig at his former boss.

The gesture can represent a number of different meanings, though often is given as a sign of content or joy.
De Gea was No 1 at United when Ten Hag took over the club, having initially joined in June 2011 from Atletico Madrid.
He had often spoke of his hopes of becoming a club legend, though found himself out the team early on under Sir Alex Ferguson. He would eventually regain his place and become the undisputed No 1.
The Spaniard would continue his role under David Moyes, Louis van Gaal, Jose Mourinho and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, and initially under Ten Hag.
He played the Dutchman's first season in charge but opted not to stay at the club after talks over a new deal, with Ten Hag making it clear he would look to sign Andre Onana, despite De Gea winning the Golden Glove the year before.
Onana would join for £47.1million, with De Gea becoming a free agent and posting on social media: 'Now, it's the right time to undertake a new challenge to push myself again in new surroundings.
'I would like to express my unwavering gratitude and appreciation for the love from the last 12 years. We've achieved a lot since my dear Sir Alex Ferguson brought me to this club.'

United had spent several months in negotiations with De Gea, whose 190 clean sheets are a club record, but ultimately Ten Hag wanted a goalkeeper who was more adept with his feet.
De Gea added upon his exit: 'I took incredible pride every time I pulled on this shirt, to lead the team, to represent this institution, the biggest club in the world was an honour only bestows upon a few lucky footballers.
'It's been an unforgettable an successful period since I came here. I don't think from leaving Madrid as a young boy we would achieve what we did together.
'Manchester will always be in my heart, Manchester has shaped me and will never leave me.'
Now, De Gea has seemingly reacted to the news that Ten Hag is on his way on social media.
After leaving United, De Gea was a free agent for a year and used his social media accounts to share cryptic messages about his future, as he did during contract negotiations with United.
He finally found a club in the summer, signing for Fiorentina and locking himself in as the Italian side's No 1.

Current United skipper Bruno Fernandes, meanwhile, posted on Instagram: 'Thanks for everything boss! I appreciate the trust and the moments we share together, I wish you all the best in the future.
'Even knowing the last period isn't [sic] been great from all of us I hope you fans can keep with you the good things the manager has done for our club!'
