Belgium coach Marc Wilmots is demanding more from Chelsea star Eden Hazard.
Hazard scored just twice in nine appearances for Belgium in World Cup qualifying and his international coach has threatened to drop him if his efforts fall.
"I once played with [Zinedine] Zidane. The ball was a part of him, nothing was impossible. I have the same feeling when Hazard has the ball," Wilmots told L'Avenir.
"Eden knows what I expect of him and that I will not tolerate any laxity in matches.
"Drop once in effort, it is one too many times.
"If one day, I feel it is not in this spirit, I will do without him. He needs to improve his stats with the national team. Five goals, including two penalty kicks, in almost fifty games? This is not enough.
"I scored 29 times for Belgium and was less talented. Eden, I love him, but I ask him to be more decisive."
