Former X Factor star Rhydian Roberts reckons Olly Murs will win the show this year because he is the most popular.

The opera ace – who came second to Leon Jackson in the 2007 series – told The News Of The World: “Maybe Olly will be this year’s late bloomer; he’s looking the most likely.

“Danyl Johnson has to be my favourite at the moment though because he is the best singer, Joe McElderry second and Stacey Solomon third.

“The only problem with Danyl is that the public don’t seem to like him and I think Olly is probably the most popular.”
