I really wonder what's your opinion of the game. Maybe some positional recommendations?

Thanks!

Oh, yes, what's actually that? "Karpov variation & Kasparov attack" or "Petrosian-Smyslov variation"?

9.h4 & 10.h5 seem quite aimless (Fritz). 

Probably the idea was pawn h6 at some point in the future, and then threatening mate on g7.

8.c3 seems to be a novelty according to my database.
