I'm sure MacQueen must be worried... if he loses this game I'll never let it rest!!

OK I've calculated a few lines here... all seem fine for black. I think it becomes very difficult for white. He more or less has to give the pawn back in order to give his bishop some freedom - completing development is much easier for black here.

If dxc3: Bf5 perhaps. Na4 is always a really useful resource for me here.

If bxc3: Na4 immediately. And his only break is now d3, which I can meet with Be6.
