Jobana London

The final position looks quite stable for black. The prior post by lostpawn247 is what you follow if 2. Nc3 is played first.
Probably the simplest is (your move order may vary) 1. d4 Nf6 2. Nc3 d5 3. Bf4 c5 4. e3 cxd4 5. exd4 a6, when at 2000+ in the Lichess database, every 6th move for White is scoring at over 50% for Black.
4. dxc4 does not fly in view of 4...d4 forcing 5. Nb1, so the only way White can vary is 4. e4, where there are a number of lines that are fine for Black, easiest is 4...Nxe4 5. Nxe4 dxe4 6. dxc5 Qxd1+ 7. Rxd1 Bd7, when the engine gives a small plus to Black. If you don't like that, 6...Nd7 and 6...Qa5 are also equal, as is 4...cxd4.
Hey
I really hate to play versus Jobava London, could someone recommend me some relatively easy set-up for black?
Thank you in advance for any recommendations
