Ignoring the knight on f5, although if it stays there, Black might be
able to take it as the bishop on b7 now covers some of the relevant squares
through which White's attack would flow. Note that if deFirmian had played 25
Ne2, then 25 ... Bxe2 would have been possible, and then Black could shoot to
place his knight on e5, keep the majors on and play a good knight vs. bad
bishop middlegame.
