21...Re7!
This subtle move initiates the concept of fighting for the long dark diagonal by adding the queen behind it from h8: 22.a5 Qh8!
21...bxa4? 22.Nxa4 and black's queenside pawn structure is ruined.
21...Nd7!? 22.Bxg7 Kxg7 with the idea of ...f5 is also interesting. However, this plan somewhat weakens the Black king.

19.Bh3!
Sometimes, we have this blind spot where we don't even consider such minor piece exchanges as giving up a fianchettoed bishop for a knight, basing our decisions on intuition or personal dogma rather than proper calculation. After 19...Ne7(otherwise 20.Bxf5) 20.Nd6 white is much better.
19.c5? A wrong decision because after 19...dxc5 20.Nxc5 d6, the problem of black d6-square is solved.
19.Rd2 This logical move allows black to complete his development with 19...Bb7 and prevent white Bh3 move.
