"It is looking good."He has worked phenomenally until now and can already take part in the beginning of [training] sessions."[But] one thing is clear, he will not return too early."  Saturday's trip to Mainz was always going to be too soon for Thiago, but Heynckes also has concerns over Sandro Wagner and David Alaba, while Arturo Vidal is definitely out."Vidal will miss Mainz with stomach flu," added Heynckes. "Sandro Wagner will probably be involved. "[Alaba] hurt his pelvis in training yesterday. We will have to see how he feels today."</blockquote>
