How does one defend against the English Attack after 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 d6 3. d4 cd 4. Nf6 Nc3 5. a6 f3 6. e6 Be3 7. b5 g4
Is this a good system for Black? I heard that Kasparov has played 8. Nfd7 planning on rerouting the Knight to b6 in preparation for attacking on the Q-side. Other moves are 8. h6 or 8. Bb7. What is everyone's opinion on the right move?
I played this position recently and played h6 but lose horribly. Is h6 a good mvoe if played correctly or is there a better move I'm not aware of?
