Even a big Bounty chocolate bar was not enough to get my brain into proper thinking form

Two points are available for a correct solution but I think there is a valid alternate solution. You get one point for the first move of the correct line
Black to play
TWIC 1255 Sicilian 3.Bb5(+)
The Sicilian Rossolimo is used to avoid the big theory of the Open Sicilian but is itself quite a labyrinth of theory
Rozentalis-Heinemann
SI Rossolimo 3.Bb5+ Nd7 4.Ba4
Bundesliga 2018-19 rd3
The 4.Ba4 approach is quite popular now. The structure after 11..d5 12.e5 gave Black problems. The Bg7 was passive and there was no good plan to get active play
After 21..Qc8(Diagram)
Black has a loose kingside and is overall quite passive. The kingside is devoid of defenders while White has a menacing buildup with a crisis brewing on g6 already
What do you recommend for White?
After 21..Qc8
Amin-Ginsburg
Sicilian Rossolimo 3..g6 4.Bxc6 dxc6 5.d3
Bundesliga 2018-19 rd4
White play for a kingside attack and was not shy about it
After 13.Rhg1N(Diagram)
White has various idea like Bxg7 then Nh4-f5 etc but it cannot be so easy to whip up a storm
What do you recommend for Black?
After 13.Rhg1
Kabanov-Sarana
Sicilian Rossolimo 3.Bb5+ Nd7 4.d4

Black has infiltrated and dominates the position
