I take- I thought I may as well lose rook for knight as lose rook for bishop

 
31... exf4
He takes

 
32. Rf3
I attack the pawn

 
32... g5
He protects it, attacking my bishop.

This is my good bishop, I want to preserve it, not allow it to be exchanged with 33. Bf2? Bc5!

 
33... Rb8
His rook is coming in now

 
34. Bc3
So I stop it going to b2
