📕 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.

📕 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.
