Very much agreed. I've watched her performance back, and the only solo skating she actually did was her jump...which was not very steady or good. The rest of her whole routine was grabbed onto Matthew or being flung in the air....making me think that Emily was actually a better skater, but Daniella did have better performance element. I think since she was in the bottom 2, there is little hope for her to win the show now, and will go sooner rather than later.
