Netherlands coach Ronald Koeman wants to see a tougher mental approach from his players after a disappointing start to his new tenure with the team this year.
The Dutch have lost three of four games since Koeman replaced Louis van Gaal, including both matches at the Nations League finals which they hosted in June.
"It's very nice atmosphere in the squad, you can see that when the players join up together,” Koeman told reporters. Koeman said the recent poor results had been "a big backwards step" and said he hoped the players realised the importance of the two qualifiers over the next six days.
