I agree that white has a space advantage but they cannot do ABSOLUTELY nothing at all at the king side or the centre. So the battle will take place at the queen side where black can easily exchange rooks + queens and then play f6.

Yes, but I replied to 10..h5 too: 11.a3 and then h4. White doesn't need counterplay since he has space advantage in the center and on the kingside. But it's true, if Black manages to play leading to some final, Black will be better...but how to do this ?

Well I haven't searched any database to test this variation. As I thought and according to what you said Dom, 10.Kf1 is the best move but I said SOMETHING like 10..h5. That means the idea of h5 to stop any counter-play in the kingside. Black can start doubling rooks for example, and exchange pieces as they have a better ending. I strongly believe that is a very interesting variation and puts a lot of problems to white! Wink

If Black play 9...f6 (instead of 9..Bb4?!+) one original way for White is Shamkovich's gambit: 10.Nc3!? and 10...fxe5 11.dxe5 Be7 (Minev evaluates the line as risky for Black is gambit is accepted . Example: Kuijf-Allen,Dublin 1977) 12.oo oo 13.Re1 Bc5!? 14.Na4 Qc7

10.Kf1! is the famous move in the famous game Alekhine-Capablanca,AVRO 1938. Capablanca played 10..Be7 but other moves can be tried. White has no need to play g4 after h5 since the goal for Black is to destroy White pawn center and, with h5,f6 is not so good. Thus 10...h5 11.a3 Be7 12.h4 and the kingside wing is fixed and some moves for White in the future: b4,Nf4, Rh3-Rg3.

1.e4 e6 2.d4 d5 3.Nd2 Nf6 4.e5 Nd7 5.Bd3 c5 6.c3 Nc6 7.Ne2 Qb6 8.Nf3 cxd4 9.cxd4 Bb4+ 
Now if:
           -  10.Bd2 Bxd2+ 11.Qxd2 Qb4, and after the queen exchange, f6 (if it takes we get a secure passed pawn otherwise we take with the g-pawn) white has an isolated pawn with the queens off the board. And as soon as black stabilizes their position they get the advantage. Otherwise
           -  10.Kf1 (I think the best) something like 10..h5 (as it provokes g4 and creates threats if white try to "castle" with g3, Kg2) and black has an active play on the queenside and nothing to be afraid of at the king side.
