Well, white's queen is boxed in,
Yes, and her only field she can move is under covered thread from c8.
and his next move will will probably be bg5xf4
he can't take his own knight.
His pawns give him a powerful defensive advantage,
No, not really. If anything, than they eventually will be a factor for pushing an attack and advance a pawn towards transformation.
but black has the advantage in mobility and redployment
Much of which you have given away earlier, and regained it only becasue white played sub-optimal.
with his side being less cluttered,
Calling the absence of a flank defense "less cluttered" must be the euphemism of th month!
and white is less one knight.
That equals just the three pawns he leads by. do not underestimate pawns just becasue they are pawns. They are the skeleton of the position.
However, the black knights are in a precarious position that has only been maintained by sacrificing pawns, which we are fresh out of at the moment.
You somewhat exchanged material for time and space. they are not really lost, you just lend them, and will get material compensation for them as well. Then the time and space advantage should stand out and really make a difference. Although you were low on material in the past moves, your psotion was to be preferred, and you had better chances.
As you said, the king is exposed, and I don't quite know what to think of that.
That's not good because it should make you think indeed.
If white does use bg5xe4 as his next move,
that is not possible a move.
black might respond with Rh8-g8, since I do expect white to move that f2 pawn soon. Rh8-g8 will at least keep the white queen in that corner once Black withdraws his g4 knight to f6.
Why should he want to? Rg8 leaves the Rook uncovered, so even when the g-line opens up, the white queen wil simply take him with check. White f3 leaves him with the problem that place gets crowded, then, only the field e2 is free for both the white bishop f1 and knight g1 to develope, which leaves one of them blocking the other. so do not be so sure about f3. yoiu mentioned your next move Bg5:, and that is the focus of action you now should focus on. Keep track of the precise variations.
btw, sky, you really threw me off by mentioning the king. I'm sure you were talking about castling, but when?..........
there is an alternative. The king can castel to both sides.
Ok that's as far as I got before I saw something . I'm almost afraid to ask but, be7xg5?
See above.
It seems like white would have move his knight to h3 or h5 after my queen ends up on g5, probably h3........
Focus on the exchange of g5, and the centre. If you want to prevent an enemy foiring a mortar at you - keep him running so that he can't set it up. Make him react to you, not the other way around. Be agressive, but not easy-minded.
Don't forget your king. As longs as Rooks and Queens are left in game, a centred king without defense is at risk.
If I think about it too much, I just make errors or get lost.
thinking too much? currently you miss to many things, so think more!
