I have no idea what a good move would be. but the coors light I'm drinking says b6 or b5 would be bad.
my normal, bad chess playing self would do d6 |

Bc5 - controls d4, develops a piece, and allows us to castle

This will be pretty uncomfortable. He even has the option of establishing the Maroczy Bind at some point with e4, making it near impossible for us to ever play d5. We need to strike back on the light squares immediately, with either d5 or c6. I prefer the preparatory move c6, which also scores best in this database. |

The battleground right now is the central light squares. Nothing else is hugely important right at the moment. |
