Oh, that's why 4..Nd7 is my preference. And then comes your question :"Where is white advantage in the modern ?". In his recent book Grivas gives a line proven by Rogozenko that is harmless for black.

9..Nxd5 is almost losing after 10.Bg5+ f6 11.O-O-O+ as given by Tiger in his Modern's book. He also gives 8..Nc6 9.fxe5! h6 as the only adequate but this is suspicious to me....

At least that's not the lines given in theorical books. After 7.c5 Be6 8.Nf3 h6 with the idea f5 Black seems ok and after 8.fxe5 Cd7 9.Nf3 Nxe5 now what do you suggest for white ? 10.Fg5+ or Ng5

7. c5 perhaps, intending Bc4 or if ...Be6 then Ktf3-g5. 7. f4 goes a bit against the grain, opening the a1-h8 diagonal.
Anyway, isn't the Modern covered in the "1. e4..." section ? It should be moved.

After the moves : 1.d4 g6 2.c4 Bg7 3.Nc3 d6 4.e4 e5 5.dxe5 dxe5 6.QxQ+ KxQ 7.f4 Be6 8.Nf3 Nd7 9.Be2 Ne7 10.00 h6 11.Be3 exf4 12.Bxf4 g5 i dont see a white plus, but all the books about the Modern defense are saying that this line is implayable for Black ...
