๐Ÿ“• 14.Nb3!
Very strong. Of course the idea of irritating by attacking the a6 pawn is not very deep, but a more stereotyped player might have had qualms about retreating the excellent knight on a5. More to the point, white is wise to the possibility of creating further queen-side chaos with another pawn break.

๐Ÿ“• 14.b4!
White increases his grip on space and controls c5 square. Given the good cover enjoyed by the e4 pawn, the fixing of the center reduces black's prospects of counterplay.
