Ronald Koeman changed the colour of his Christmas tree decorations after Everton fans argued it was too red.
Everton boss Koeman, 53, had tweeted a picture of his Christmas tree on Thursday with the caption: "Almost Christmas time, busy football period."
He was soon met with a barrage of comments due to the majority of the tree containing a distinctly red colour, to which the former Netherlands international later replied with a picture of the same tree featuring far more white with the humorous message, "Better colour?"
The comical exchange ended when the Premier League manager tweeted: "I think there are more serious problems in the world, than making a big story out of a Christmas tree!"
Koeman added at his pre-match press conference on Friday: "Of course I am a Blue! It was funny - but it was a big mistake from my wife!
"I understand the fanatic blue people. Of course I am the Everton manager and will do everything to be successful at this great club.
"But I like a glass of red wine... I don't need, if I drink a glass of red wine, to mention and to show I am a blue. But okay, it's funny. Don't take it too seriously."
The Dutchman arrived at Everton in the summer from Southampton and his side currently sit seventh in the table, nine points off the top four.
Last month, Koeman admitted that he had been impressed by rivals Liverpool and believed they had the firepower to win the title this season. The two sides meet in the Merseyside derby on Monday December 19, live on Sky Sports.
Next up for Everton is the visit of Manchester United on Nissan Super Sunday, and the Toffees manager will hope for some festive cheer and a change in fortunes with his side having won just once in their last nine games.
