X Factor star Louis Walsh has claimed that Daniel Evans, Austin Drage and Ruth Lorenzo have no chance of winning the competition.

Though he saved Evans last weekend, Walsh has now revealed that he expects the pool cleaner to be eliminated within weeks.

The Irish judge also suggested that Drage's attitude and Lorenzo's Spanish background would prove to be their respective downfalls on the programme.

"I think Daniel's days are numbered now," Walsh told the Daily Star. "Austin looks too desperate to win and Ruth won't last as she's Spanish with no fanbase here. My boyband JLS can win. What have Simon's boys got? A panto dame. Him!"

Walsh also expressed disbelief at Strictly Come Dancing beating The X Factor to the Most Popular Talent Show gong at the National Television Awards this week.

He asked: "What happened? Were all the hospitals and nursing homes on redial that night?"

He's an Idiot!!!!!
