Hi Eladar,
All the lad said was he hoped it was not an ongoing game.
In the past people have in all innocence posted questions about a game
in progress and got in a wee bit of bother, he may have been looking out for you.
White has more space, better developed. Black has a loose piece on a5.
Keep the pawns on e4 and d4 till you see a very reason to push either one.
The White Rooks need taking up central squares. But first keep him
lagging in development.
1.Ne5 is the automatic choice. You always play Ne5 if given the chance
and it is not going to be kicked or swapped off very soon.
Note if Black plays Bc8 or Be8 with the idea of Nbd7, they will want
rid of that Knight ASAP. then the e5 Knight goes to c6
and it wins a piece. (the loose bishop on a5).
After 1.Ne5 Black best appears to be Bb6 to bring the loose piece in
and it hits the b-pawn which the f3 Knight was defending.
When ever you see a Knight move look back at what squares it was protecting.
That is the down side of any Knight move. It cannot move and hold the
same squares it was already covering. Rooks, Queens and Bishops can.
1.Ne5 Bb6 then Rfd1 (covers tactically the d-apwn. ) The a1 Rook has a
home on c1 unless you want use it to back up an a2-a4 push v those
advanced pawns. A lot depends on Blacks developing plan after Ne5.
