Control would be to play a bit more conservatively when you're up 1-2 goals in a hostile environment away with not many minutes to play, where you instruct the players to try to slow down the tempo and not try to spam attacks and risk losing possession in a position where you open up yourself up for a counter-attack.
Maybe not have your backline so high up the pitch either. Obviously not saying they should park the bus, but you can try to slow the game down, a play a bit more conservatively and force the opposition to be the ones to commit higher up the pitch. That way you might also get a couple of opportunities to counter-attack to seal the game.
Whether you trust your team to be able to soak up the pressure is another discussion, but with our squad and the situation we're in right now, Flick will need to be more flexible at times.
This is not the Bundesliga of the late 2010s and very early 2020s that he was a part of. Teams here will use their brains and various tactics instead of playing like the usual German mid-table team of years ago that would play suicidal football and let Bayern score 8 goals on them.
His subs and rotations in general so far have been terrible as well. Rotated against the wrong team and time. Subbed out the wrong players.
Like with Raphinha in the recent game. Maybe he was tired? But then why have you kept him on so many times in games where we have led with 3+ goals? Maybe if you subbed him out then from time to time he'd be fresh enough to play the full 90 in a game like the recent one?
