On Wednesday, it was confirmed that Rooney's first game in charge will be against Sheffield Wednesday on August 11.
Gary Lineker live on air that he will be heading "straight down" to Plymouth when he returns. Following tonight's goalless draw between Belgium and Ukraine, host Gary asked Rooney how he's feeling about joining the Pilgrims.
When Lineker asked him about the excitement of returning to coaching after the fixture announcement, Rooney added: "The excitement was there today when you see the fixtures.
"You look through the opening games, your Christmas schedule and stuff so yeah really excited."
Shearer then joked they are the pundits that will "start criticising you".
Lineker then hilariously took aim at former Portugal international Jose Fonte who wore a white striped shirt as a special guest in the studio.
