Liverpool's defender Arbeloa is eager to return to Spain as he does not intend to suffer a paycut  Several others are set to follow his example 
I hope the Liverpool team that was assembled by Benitez dun start falling apart

It is a big problem but the problem applies to all teams in England, not just us. I don't think that's Arbeloa's reason to return to Spain. Reason being he has only 1 year left on his contract. The 50% tax comes into effect in April next year. Arbeloa will only be paying 50% taxes for April and May, not that big a factor to leave I suppose.
Who knows? The working relation between Carragher and Arbeloa might have worsen till a stage where he feels he needs to leave. If I recall, Arbeloa didn't play in our last match.
