📕11...Nb8!
A Karpovian retreat. No other player has ever been more skilled at using the back rank to increase the energy of his pieces than the 12th World Champion. The knight is well placed on c6, but there is an even better square waiting for it on c5 - and so the knight spends three moves getting there. Karpov is king of the short maneuver.
11...Na5 12.Bb5+ Bd7 13.a4 has already played in a game between Vasiukov-Robatsch with white's success.
11...0-0 The main line according to theory.

🔸Nimzowitsch,A

🔸Gothenburg, 1934

📕 25.Rc5!
White has an extra pawn and there is another one hanging on b5, but after 25.Rxb5 Rxa2 26.b4 Black has great chances to draw after 26...Bh4!. , Black's rook on the seventh rank gives him a lot of counterplay. So Nimzowitsch wants to stop his opponent getting his rook to the seventh rank whilst getting his own rook to its ideal location.
