He was a ghost after New Year in all of his seasons here though.
My point exactly. A flop. Ok, not a total bust as his stats were still great and we sold him for a decent fee. But he was a bad fit.

Lets wait what happens with Griezmann first. If it fails we will probably go for Thiago.

Maybe you're right about Thiago's case and I have nothing against Bayern. I actually would have loved if they had all their players to knock out Real Madrid... But fact is: every year Bayern goes to the CL semi-finals and every year when they get there, half of the starting 11 is injured. Who's to blame for that ? Pep and his doctors ?! As far as I'm concerned, it's been 2 years since he left and Bayern's medical team is still doing bad. Very bad.

Who are we talking of? Robben, Ribery... - not really a surprise. Boateng lately is no surprise either. It is always the same players that have problems. The rest is bad luck like Lahm, that broke his leg 2 or 3 seasons ago or that Lewy got knocked out from Dortmund's goalkeeper in the cup match.
Bayern depends on the wingers for a special playing style. Müller in free role in front of Thiago is a different story than to play in a conventional 4-3-3 with him on the right - those two together are great as Müller opens the spaces and Thiago sees them and plays the passes for it. The 4-3-3 means a lot domination with the ball but less surprise in the actions. But the wingers are high drilled machines and with Gnabry and Coman we have the next players for the wing that seem to have a similar track with injuries. Gnabry was great for Hoffenheim this season - 10 goals and 5 assists for a midtable team (he usually scores the first goals, too, what makes him especially valuable) - and will hopefully do this at Bayern, too. But he runs from one into the next muscle injury.

Bookmakers have no inside knowledge about this.
If I start a rumor on Twitter tonight and get 5k people retweet it, they'll slash the odds even more.
And that's what happened. A Real Madrid blogger/fan or whatever he is speculated about Thiago since Lopetegui played Thiago and Isco together as the CMs for the U21 team.

skybet: they still don't think it's too likely he goes to Real but I thought it was a bit interesting how much they've cut the odds
1-2 days ago; he was 4/5 on to join Barca and something like 25/1 for Real
now: 1/1 for Barca and 5/1 for Madrid
