On the verge of a move back to his hometown club, the departing Red explained how he plans to fit back in at the Bernabeu...
Alvaro Arbeloa is looking forward to restarting his career with Real Madrid, and is already thinking about beating Barcelona - again. During his near two-year spell with Liverpool, he helped the Reds secure huge victories against the likes of Manchester United, Chelsea and Inter. However, it's Liverpool’s famous win over Barcelona in the Champions League back in 2007 that will be the night he will always savour.
“The Barcelona match was my first start for Liverpool,” Arbeloa told Goal.com.
“The match was also my first European game for Liverpool. Barcelona were the holders at the time and we came from behind to beat them 2-1. That was so special, I cannot describe how I felt.
“You have to remember that I used to play for Madrid before I came to Liverpool, so it meant a lot to me.”
