Real Madrid striker Klaas Jan Huntelaar says the Dutch media needs to learn to love it's domestic competition again.

Former Ajax forward Huntelaar said: "We must stop calling our competition a Mickey Mouse league.

"They say this on television and everyone seems to accept it.

"Just look at Roy Makaay. If the competition was so weak he'd be among the top scorers this season.

"Every Saturday, I had a difficult game (playing in Holland)."
