Maybe the worst Bayern in years, but that isn't saying much

Their standard is pretty high.

Experience really matters in these matches, the margins are fine. Bayern is loaded with CL experience and has two two-time winners still on the roster from 2013 (Neuer and Thomas). This match was 100% in control once that goal went in, they knew exactly how to handle it.

And I have to give a lot of credit to Tuchel re: Saka - from the point where Davies got his yellow card early in the first leg, he essentially double covered that wing. Gnabry started tracking all the way back in that game, and in this game he used Guerrero as a LW instead of LB, and had Guerrero come back and provide extra coverage for Maz on that side. Guerrero has stepped in at LB for Bayern a few times this year with Davies in and out.
