In 2005, Jan Pinski classified 7 d5 as a dubious move and gave the reply as 7...Nce7, citing an 1841 correspondence game. Don't forget that White is down a pawn.

yes that move definitely seems to lose the initiative for white as it creates a locked center and deadens white's light squared bishop you may play nce7 as has been said, then develop the other knight castle and try to play for the f5 lever with advantage.

Nce7, if Qa4+ then c6 protects the bishop

Not only that, but by playing d5 white closed off the attacking diagonal for his bishop.

 

nce7 is fine. In fact, you might even follow with f5- Nf6 - castles

It just looks bad to me, too. White seems to have no attack left.
