I was torn apart once in this line playing with the black pieces, so maybe I have a thing or two to learn. However I'd probably avoid this line altogether as white or black.

5. 0-0. The soundest opening ever.

Let's play the Muzio

5. Ne5

1. e4 e5 2. f4 exf4 3. Nf3 g5 4. Bc4 g4 5. O-O

OK, no reason to chicken out here for black: 5. ... gxf3

Absolutely! Take the knight, make white prove his gambit. How weak is f7 really?

6. ... gXf3. Obviously best!

6.... gxf3, now it's starting to get interesting.

5...gxf3 (making way for white queen and rook to head for f7?)

The Muzio it is. gxf3

5...fxg5 looks obvious. What else is there?

Why did white castle? Is this all about attacking f7?
