Hadn't been evicted ....

And made the final, where do you think he'd finish?. Or do you even think he'd have a good chance at winning?.

I personally feel robbed, we'll never know now . I'd like to think he would have made the top 3 at least.

I think he would have won or come second. It would have been a close race and an exciting finish I think.

it sucks we'll never know,I think he had a good chance of winning aswell.

Looking at him outside the house he seems really happy. I think he will do well for himself outside the show. Could see him doing other reality kind of shows also.

I have a good feeling about him aswell

[Adamw92]

It depends on who would have been evicted in his place I guess but he would definitely be final 2.

[Mystic Mock]

I think with Lily being evicted that Khaled would've been pipped by Ali to the win.

[Locke.]

I think he might have been the bookies favourite but second in the polls behind Ali. Ali still would have won I think but would have been way closer than it’s gonna be.

I do think it would be an Ali V Khaled final 2 which tbh would have been the perfect ending to the series. I think Khaled would have won. Both have fans, but Khaled didn't really have that many haters. I think Khaled was a victim of strategic voting to keep Ali in even though a lot of Ali fans were also fans of Khaled and vice versa.

Can see it being one of the most predictable endings and they are usually boring.

As long as none of them subsequently had a moment to seriously change their support this week, I think the top four were all up for eviction last Friday - Ali, Emma, Khaled and Lily. Losing two of them is where the show started to flounder heading into final week.

Again, series-changing event aside, I think there would have at least been question marks over who would win between Ali and Khaled, particularly if Lily had survived as Ali's vote would have been split.

[joeysteele]

I think once it was vote to win.
He'd have been a contender and likely top 3.

I do feel he had his chance taken away by being left up for a double eviction on vote to evict.

[MTVN]

Think he'd have won honestly unless he messed up in the final week

[Benjamin]

I still think Ali would have won but I think Ali vs Khaled would be a lot closer than Ali vs Marcello.

[millyrose]

Maybe still think Ali would win he would have given her a good run for the money.

[moon_peach]

I think he would have been in the final 2 with Ali, but I could be wrong. The final 2 we deserved ��

Yeah this is my guess. It really feels like they were supposed to be the final 2. And it would’ve been easier for Khaled to win than Ali as he’s nowhere near as divisive.

Having said that, I have a couple of friends who are casual viewers and are currently only halfway through the season. I asked them to predict who they think the final 6 are and neither of them guessed Khaled would be in the final! Obviously they’re just 2 people, but it made me wonder if casual viewers might not line up with fan opinion here.

If I remember correctly, Khaled was around fifth in the odds at the halfway point. I think calling out Nathan generated some support, and his handling of the second fallout with Ali (though that may have aired by this point). Then there was the feeling of 'betrayal' when Marcello saved Thomas over him. His odds shortened as the risk increased, especially as people correctly predicted that Lily would be first out in the double.

Khalid was last years yinrun
He was given plenty of air time before his eviction
He wasn’t as popular as this forum presumed
I think people thought he was a good house mate based on his looks more than his personality, in that department, he was saying what people wanted to hear

I don't think his popularity can be dismissed as readily as that. Out of those who were evicted he has the highest following on social media, including Lily. Maybe his looks played a part but so does his personality and the way he conducted himself in the house. And if he was saying what people wanted to what he wouldn't have fell out with the likes of Ali, Hanah, Marcello or Nathan, nor have tension with Sarah.

The reason he was evicted was down to being the only member of the core up, with fans of others seeing him as the obvious target to protect their favourites.

Yeah, at one point he was briefly favourite to win, I think around the end of Halloweek

You can come up with every idea in the book why he is out the fact is he is out

The reasons were all over social media, including this forum.

I still think Ali would have won, even if he had survived the double.

[Glenn.]

Probably 4th

[Lostie!]

I had him marked as the winner from the second week so I reckon he'd have taken it if he made the final.
