White develops a smart plan to play on the queenside, where he has a space advantage and is fighting against the a5-bishop which is a bit misplaced.

White threatens b4.

Using the pin along the a-file.

The knight here cannot be expulsed and puts pressure against d6.

White keeps placing his pieces in the best squares. Now the queen is ready to be transferred to a1, putting more pressure along the a-file and also along the main diagonal after a possible dxc5.

First of all, White creates the weakness, and second, exploits it with their pieces.

There we go! White wants to push the pawn to a5 and try to create a weak square on c5!

This move looks to force b5 to get the c5-outpost.

Going to c5, where it targets a6 and controls d7. With this simple plan, White provoked a weak square to later occupy it with a knight.

And White enjoys a fantastic position.
