20 Effort = strain

wine in a wine bar coems fron a vinyard
anag. of "in a very" plus D (key)
^ comes
^ vineyard
Vineyard (source [of wine, eg] for bars) - anag 'in a very' + 'D' (key, music)

One-sided - 'E(nglish)' (in) 'onside' (well-positioned, as player) + '(forwar)d' (rear of)
17 vineyard is an anagram of 'in a very' plus the key of D.
8d.Well positioned = onside round e + d
