If somebody had told us a few years ago that Paul Scholes would become a football pundit post-retirement, we would have called them crazy.The Manchester United legend barely said two words during his 20-year playing career. He purposely shunned the limelight and enjoyed nothing better than getting straight home to his family after a match or training session.But that’s all changed since Scholes hung up his boots in 2013. We’re now used to seeing Scholes on our television screens and he’s not exactly the shy, retiring flower that we all thought he was.Scholes, who doesn’t use social media, is one of the most outspoken football pundits right now.He tells it like it is - especially when it comes to Manchester United - and isn’t scared to call players or managers out when he deems it necessary to do so.Scholes still has aspirations of becoming a coach, so we should enjoy him providing analysis on BT Sport while we can.It surely won’t be too much longer before a club in either the Premier League or Football League gives him an opportunity.

People heard what Scholes said before kick-off

Scholes was on punditry duty on Wednesday night at Bournemouth’s Vitality Stadium and tore into Paul Pogba prior to kick-off.

However, he was also caught swearing while presenter Jack Humphrey was talking, much to the amusement of viewers. Here’s the video…

Oh, Scholesy.

The United legend must have momentarily forgotten that he could still be heard on live TV, even though the camera wasn’t on him at that exact moment.

Everyone found it funny

Many people heard it too, unfortunately for BT Sport, and they immediately took to social media to ask if anyone else had noticed Scholes’s gaffe.

‘Must have been watching Pogba’s warm up,” @Reggie_88 joked on Twitter.

It’s safe to assume Scholes would have received a ticking off for his X-rated language.

However, this isn’t the first time that the 43-year-old has been caught saying something he shouldn’t live on BT Sport.

Back in 2015, he was caught calling Robbie Savage a “knobhead” under his breath.

Although, perhaps unsurprisingly, everybody had complete sympathy for him on that occasion.
