As long as he apologises for what he did in 2005 the fans will be 100% behind him. I think there a huge twist in his decision. Firstly he wants to prove to Benfica that he is not ready to retire and to show he he still has a lot of football and goals in his legs. Secondly its kinda sticking his two fingers up at Benfica going to a team that recently is classed as a rival rather than a small team. I think he's a fantastic player to come off the bench and lift the team when they need it most. He's also an inspiration to many players and it will benefit the younger players a lot and they will learn a lot from him. It will also bring some needed experience in the dressing room. The fact that he's Portuguese is also a huge plus if Braga have a n even half decent run in the Europa League. I think he's the kinda player that will push Lima who seemed bored in the secodn half of last season and it will make him work extremmely hard to keep his place in the starting 11. There are so many positives of bringing a player the calibre of Nuno Gomes to a club like Braga. I'm very happy that he is here...

The Pizzi deal seems to have hid the skids and it looks like he could be staying for now... But its way too early to be certain. It's waht most people are saying..

I like that he's decided to stay in Portugal. I regret that I only became interested in the Seleccao towards the end of his career. He was an important figure for Portugal though, and I can tell that he was one of the most respected strikers that Portugal has ever had. The way people talk about him, he seems to be everyone's favorite.

I do remember the goal he scored against Germany right before the half to bring us back from 2-0 down. We lost that game anyway, but it was a really crucial goal and one that I'll remember for some time.

If Nuno Gomes can keep up his fitness, he could prove useful to a team like Braga. I do wonder where they will go from here. After the last two remarkable seasons, it almost seems as is there is no where else to go but back down where they came from. Still, if they keep bringing in new players and work hard with their new coach, they may have a chance again next season too.
Forca Braga! Forca Nuno Gomes!

I am very happy to hear that Nuno will most likely be playing in the Minho. I think he will get quite a bit of playing time and I think things could get interesting with him on the field more. So looking forward to the new season.

Portugal should give him another shot, it's not like Almeida or Postiga are doing much (although he did win us the game vs Norway). Liedson should be given another shot before him though, he's tearing it up with Corinthians.

people who can learn from Great Nuno

I’m glad that Nuno isn’t going to Mexico. I think Braga would be a good place because he would add value to their team and he would be one of their best players guaranteeing him the playing time he wants. In a way I would love to see him playing in the MLS and representing Portugal for us here in North America.

If he wanted to make a real impact in Portuguese football he would go back to Boavista to get them out of the third division and back to top flight. I still think it’s a shame that a club like Boavista is sitting down there. They had a stronger run then Braga a few years back and were actually competing for titles with the big 3. But you never know, maybe he’ll win a league cup or something with Braga.

I'm glad Nuno is staying home. I'm not too thrilled his joining Braga though because they have somewhat become a big rival to Benfica over the years. It's funny I say that because from the 04/05 to the middle of the 09/10 season Braga became somewhat of my third favorite team in Portugal, but Benfica-Braga over the past few years have really built up to a fierce rivalry. Oh well I will always support my dude, Nuno Gomes and hope he scores many goals in Braga, except against Benfica of course lol, to earn a call-up from Bento for Euro 2012.
