yes Be5 wants...Bxe5 discovered attack on white square bishop and knight fork at f6.
Oh, I didn't see the knight fork at Nf6. Very nice. But, even if black sees and avoids it we still have the outpost.
BE5,making room for the knight fork
hello
what about Rd3?
perhaps white can transfere Rooks on the king side!
In the following game white has just played Bd6 and black responded with Re8. What is the next (and the very thematic) move for white here?
