"Ein Springer am Rande bringt Kummer und Schande"...however, exceptions confirm the rule! :-)

2:13 i disagree with Korchnoi, Bg5 is not the best move, its what he played Bg4 reason been, in this positions you want to castle queen side, and Bg5 will be ahead of the pawn storm, so you will have to waste a tempo to remove the Bishop, also Yuri Averbakh said so and he had a game with Sarvarov 1959

[@naseempopov9013]

castilng queen side is the weakest plan after Bg5 , main plans are to exchange on d5 and go for minority attack or play on the the centere with f3 and e4 , i mean Bf4 is the new theoritical move to create some complications but Bg5 is still the best move

[@zvezdanjasovic3185]

You’re wrong mate. If white castles queenside with his bishop on g5, then black would ruin his position completely if he would chase that bishop. Why would black do a pawnstorm on the side his own king is?

[@hoggar1452]

Unfortunately for him Karpov was superior and beat him in 3 matches.

Karpov beat Korchnoi in 1974 finals, 1978 WC and destroyed him in 1981 WC but he did not respect Karpov. Loser'
