QGD(slav defence)white counter

Sort:
arcdp

In this position I know that the knight outpost on e5 is not that good according to database, but I have difficulties on it black is slightly good even white is good but again its very hard I cant explain...For those who are expert on QGD or in slav pls. suggest on how to play it what are the continuation, plans, and strategy for white tnx...

Chess4001

you just played a stonewall by black, the slav variation (rather than the more common dutch variation). The idea is strong but black failed to notice his own weak square on e5. So white can mimic the plan, do f4, and will end up with more space.

What if blacks play like this how should white continue?...according to my database it will result pawn weekness for white...

TwoMove

IM pfren may have in mind a move order like 1.d4 d5 2c4 e6 3Nf3 c6 4e3 Bd6 5bd3 f5 60.0 f5 when if try to get black squared bishops off with 7b3 black can play Qe7. Don't think it's very easy proving a white advantage if allow this line.
