He means to keep his pawn struct, but he is forfeiting c-pawn! |

He recaptures. |

And it's safe for me to take it, coz there is not much he can do against me with Qa4+ and Bb5. So here the balance starts favouring me. |

He needs to develop fast for castling. |

I castle myself to avoid any trouble. |

Fiancetto, he's next to castle. |

I know his knight will be pinned if he castles. |

Not sure of this move here, maybe he wants to get his bishop to the diagonal to get my castle pawns in trouble. |
