I hate Black's position after 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bb5 f5 4. Bxc6.
Sharp Lines as black against the Ruy?

Really? I think that's the most fun for Black.
No, its a drawing weapon for White.

lol, if white needs a drawing weapon you're doing ok as black
How about the Zaitsev that can get pretty crazy.
@AnthonyCG
Well you see, 5. Nxe5 is a bad move... perhaps your comment would be more helpful if it showed a good move for White.
d4
or Nc3
Bxc6 is a drawing weapon, meaning that the player of White is content with the draw. This doesn't mean the position is drawn, but the simplicity of the position can easily lead to one. The same can be said of the exchange french or exchange kid.
were are the resources so i can study the schliemann then?
I need some really sharp suggestions against the ruy lopez as black. At first i wanted the schliemann variation after 1.e4...e5
2.nf3....nc6
3.bb5....f5
but i cant find any videos or any resources besides a datatbase which tells me black is simply worse no matter what? are there any other popular sharp lines against the lopez or at least try very hard for an advantage or put some major imbalances on the board?
