Brand New Aguilar Variation in the Gruenfeld?

Once when I was still a noob at played at chess.com I started playing the Gruenfeld. I left it because I am scared of passed pawns on my 5th rank.

Today at McDonalds I was thinking about my god Fischer and how much of an honor to play 1.d4 against him and watch him answering with the Grunfueld (he only used it against Yisus Craist players). I ended up watching at the roof like a retard with the mouth open thinking about Nf6 instead of Nxc3 and e5 instead of c5. I then opened DroidFish and found the following variation is playable.

I don't know of anyone that plays this and so I will call it the Aguilar Variation (I need to contribute to chess).

Here is the line:

1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.Nc3 d5 4.cxd5 Nxd5 5.e4 Nxc3 6.bxc3 Bg7 7.Bc4 0-0 8.Ne2 e5!! 9.Ba3 Re8 10.Qb3 Qf6 11.0-0 exd4.

According to DroidFish whites holds a .79 advantage (common in hypermodern openings, it is not because my variation is unsound.)

For d5 I tought of f5. But that will be your work guys, its you, the Gruenfeld player that loves passed pawns on the 5th that will investigate this variation and use it as a surprise opening.
Joke post? Isolated white a pawn and white center pawns is common in the Gruenfeld. And why were you at McDonalds thinking about Fishcer? LOL. My life as a sad vegetarian. o_o
oh and I did think I forgot to send you a PM back about that Sicilian. It was very interesting game as I do not study around the Sicilian. Too complicated for me starting around b4. (It would take rather long study to understand the position for me) Why cant we play something better like the QGD or Catalan? But yes thanks for the read it was interesting and I might start to study those Najdorf lines I have disliked so much for so long.
@noob2chess

It wasnt a joke post lol, I really mean it with e5. Seems interesting, altough that c4 bishop would become a beast.

Talking about the Sicilian, as Fischer's son I never hated the Najdorf, the idea with b4 is just to roll the pawns up the board to open lines. Actually after h4 which as I said was a horrible move black is already better and has the initiative, that is why I like the Najdorf, 1 passive move and you are out.But yes, positions are somewhat complicated at the beginning, but once you play the Najdorf for about a year, you forget you have a king and just go for the mate lol
