The 6.Bc4 Najdorf requires detailed preparations for the defence. Georgiev and Kolev give this line and the Najdorf as a whole a thorough analysis. Now these findings are verified in light of recent games.
1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 d6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nc3 a6 6.Bc4 e6 7.0–0 b5 8.Bb3 Be7 9.Qf3 Qb6 10.Be3 Qb7 11.Qg3
(a)11...b4!(Georgiev/Kolev)
(b)11...0-0
Here is a recent game in the 11...0-0 line which is not part of the Georgiev/Kolev repertoire. However, I think it's a perfectly viable method of defending.
