MANCHESTER UNITED legend Paul Scholes awkwardly caught out presenter Harry Pinero looking at his stomach after admitting he was "never an athlete".
The Red Devils icon, 48, welcomed YouTube star Pinero, 32, down to his gym for an interview.
But Scholes, who is often self-deprecating, was quick to reference how he is no longer in the best shape.
While complementing the ex-midfielder on Rio Ferdinand's YouTube channel, Pinero said: "I never felt like your quality dipped."
To which Scholes responded: "Oh it did, it definitely did. There were times when obviously you're not having a good time.
"As we mentioned before downstairs about me not being an athlete, I am the last person you'd ever… as you can tell by looking at me."

Scholes tailed off as the pair awkwardly laughed, before the former England international joked: "I can tell you're trying not to look down but the belly…"
Pinero then turned away and widened his eyes before he moved on with a chuckle.
Scholes continued: "I was never, ever an athlete so I had to have something else.
"I had to have a brain, I had to be clever, I had to be wise about how to get space, how to make space, where to pass the ball.
