I really wonder whether the pendulum has swung too far. In the 80s and 90s, we had a plethora of repertoire books overselling this stuff for White, and now we seem to have a plethora of repertoire courses probably overselling all this stuff for Black. 

Maybe there's now abnormal profits to be had championing this stuff from the white side once again  Smiley

"Carlsbad Structure - Complete Repertoire for Black"

This got my attention also. Many new ideas for black have been advanced where he avoids or significantly delays ...Nbd7. Black can opt for ...Bg4 or ...Be6 or ...Bb4.

Those systems are fine for many QGD repertoires but not those that start with an early ...Nbd7, such as the Cambridge Springs defense. I'm not sure about the Manhatan. Also, an early ...Nbd7 can be tried in anticipation of white playing Bf4 instead of Bg5. The upshot is that this relatively old line, refreshed I'm sure with new moves, does not limit black in his choice of systems.

I was a bit struck by this from "Carlsbad Structure - Complete Repertoire for Black" from Modern Chess.

1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 e6 3. Nc3 d5 4. cxd5 exd5 5. Bg5 c6 6. e3 Be7 7. Bd3 Nbd7 8. Qc2 0-0 9. Nge2 Re8 10. 0-0 Nf8 11. f3 Ng6 12. e4 [12. Rae1?!; 12. Rad1] dxe4 13. fxe4 Be6 14. Rad1 [14. h3 c5!]

The red ECO from 2004 didn't show White as getting an advantage against this kind of play. One of the games cited (as unclear, in this case) was Timman-Yusupov, Riga 1995. I recalled that Yusupov much later (2014 vs. Sjugirov) played the same way, maybe ran into a prepared improvement, and lost.
