If you’re playing a London, think about only trading your light-squared bishop if you have a really good reason to, as all of your pawns tend to be on dark squares, so giving up that piece tends to lose control of the light squares.
So one thing I would look at if you are playing the London are the moments when you can push C4, because when you are allowed to make that push and develop the knight behind it, you end up with a much stronger position out of the opening. In my opinion, its the best deviation to know when maining the London system.
If you have a passed pawn on center and a locked pawn on A or H file, you should always protect the first one if having to choose. "the rook pawns" are a stalemate in king versus king plus one pawn endgame.
@@IvanLChess no, he means prioritize the central pawns over the A/H file pawns if you can only protect one. but it's wrong anyway, often easier to push A/H pawns if u have multiple pawns, so it entirely depends on situation

Also I left this comment before the analysis, so I am happy to see the coach saying something similar!
That’s good to know. Figuring out when to play c4 in the London is something I’m still trying to figure out
...so basically just play the Queen's Gambit lol?

The first one as in the one furthest up the board?
