Florin Raducioiu (striker,ex-romanian star player in the 90's,especially in World Cup 1994, where he scored 4 goals in that tournament) said in an interview that that he's friend with Pocchetino,and he know why Chiriches was transfered to Napoli,and he said that manager
don't liked Vlad Chiriches even from the beginning of his arrival,not being in his preferences at all,"he don't like the player,and that mean that Vlad don't have any chance to play more for Spurs,i say that he could play more for Napoli,but there is like in England,if you don't play regular and catch a place in the first team,he will find there the same story like in England (Spurs)"

My opinion now ,is that Chiriches was doomed when Poch transfered his countryman,Fazio,obviously,Chiriches was considered a reserve from that point,the player understood the new situation in that moment,and he don't played like he was in the first season,thinking more for his next destination.
