Besides, its too soon to know where the best square for the bishop will be 11.f4 Nh6 12.f5! Is best I think because after 12...Nxf5 comes 13.Rf1 Be7 14.Bxf7+! And if 13...Kd8 then 14.Bg5+ Nfe7 15.Nd6 Kc7 16.Nxf7 Rg8 17.0-0-0 and white is fully developed while most all of blacks pieces inhabit his first three ranks!
instead of 11.f4 why can't you play your bishop to put pressure on his position?
I'm justing putting ideas out there... I'm probably horribly wrong😕
