I think he was a worthy winner that year. But talent contests are not the real world.

In the real world you're up against lots of tough global acts and need actual sales. You also need personality and good songs. I think he sadly lacks these two things.

Also, some acts need to win to stand any chance of success(Shayne, Leon..) whereas other acts(Cher, Diana vickers) would be better served by not winning as it would be too constricting for their style. Theyre better as underdogs with no pressure to succeed.
