6. Bc4 and 6. Bg5 are logical options. White gives up a pawn for a large lead in development.

Wah! Great idea Ponz! I'm assuming we are set to attack on f7 with the bishop bishop support (the knight goes in for the kill).

We are setting up to win. It does not have to be with a direct attack on f7.  It could be just to 0-0 next move.  Just depends on what Black does next...
