Bayern earned a 3-0 home win against Bochum to stay top of the Bundesliga.
Despite the win against Bochum, Bayern boss Nagelsmann said his side must raise their level.
“We played well in the first six minutes, after that we weren’t in the game,” he said.
“The substitutions brought fresh momentum but we have to improve.”
Bayern’s advantage has been cut since the Bundesliga restarted after the World Cup and winter break.
Nagelsmann’s side opened the year with three consecutive draws before returning to winning ways by beating Mainz in the German Cup and a 4-2 league win at Wolfsburg last week.
Bayern lacked fluidity in the early stages against relegation battlers Bochum, but took the lead when Thomas Muller – making his 427th league appearance for the club, a record for an outfield player – pounced on an under-hit back pass from Bochum defender Saidy Janko to score.
Substitute Kingsley Coman doubled Bayern’s lead in the second half, with former Arsenal winger Serge Gnabry winning and converting a penalty to secure victory.
