They all had tough decisions to make
Which judge/judges made the best decision for their top 3 in the liveshows?
Simon, Cheryl , Nick or Rita?

Rita for me.

I would probably say Cheryl then Rita Simon made the worst I think

Rita did. ..

I'd say Nick and Rita made the best decisions .
Nick had a tough decision to make out of his boys I can see why he picked each boy Seann and Che are so strong vocally and Mason he's is very talented .

Rita I would've chosen her top 3 too even if I would've loved Monica to get a place Louisa , Lauren and Kiera were brilliant.

Cheryl made stupid decisions again no Becklyn or the New Kings Order/

Simon wasn't the best Erbu or Jennifer should've got a place.

I'd swap Keira for Monica and Menn On Poinnt for BEKLN, but the chosen ones are not bad. I wish Nick had chosen Simon instead of Mason and well, not gonna get into the Overs category.....

Nick made SUCH an error not taking Simon through. He could've won the whole thing.

I voted Cheryl as the one who made the best choicds

Voted Cheryl - Agreed with Fourth Impact and Alien Uncovered but couldn't believe she put through Menn on Poinnt

Nick was the worst for me - I would have chosen Simon, Josh and Che in that order. I hated Mason not because of his attitude, but because I don't like his voice or style, and I was neither here nor there on Sean.

Only change I would have made with Rita is swap Chloe for Keira, but I did like Keira too.

With Simon I wasn't overly keen on many of them, but I would have swapped Ebru for Anton.

Nick made the best decisions by a long-shot. He has the strongest category.

Simon made the worst. ...

Cheryl 100%, the rest made massive errors AKA choosing dull bland bores ZZZZZ

As much as it pains me I'd have to say Cheryl. Thats the category i'm looking forward to seeing the most on the live shows. I'd have been disappointed if any of those 3 hadn't been picked.

I think both Rita and Cheryl chose well.

Rita, whilst I'm sad that Chloe went there was always going to be one huge loss in her category and the other 3 are very very good. With the others there is at least one contestant I'd swap out and in the case of Simon I'd have honestly chosen the complete opposite!

I had to go with Rita on this one despite her picking Keira.... If Nick picked any of the 3 other boys instead of Mason, then it would have been him. I think Cheryl made the worst decisions by putting Alien and RnB through.

Cheryl was the only one who picked the same three I would've picked.

I put Nick as I predicted his 3 - as I'm sure most people did, I thought it was obvious who he was gonna pick. Though I did like Ben and Simon.

With Cheryl, as others have said I wouldn't have put Reggie and whatever his name is through. I would have gone for one of the 2 boybands.

With Rita, I quite liked Chloe but I knew she didn't stand a chance of getting through so I guess I kinda agree with her choices.

Simon made by far the worse decision. Could actually argue that he should have picked the opposite 3! Though I thought Max did up his game so can see why Simon picked him.

Rita was spot on. Nick messed up putting Seann through. He's too over the top. Simon should not have put Bupsi through and Cheryl putting through them two lads was a joke!

Rita defos I love her 3
I also Like Che and Sean i think the comments that are getting mentiond about Sean are rubbish he is gay but is no differant to the rest of them

Bupsie aside, Simon for me.
It's just what appeals to my personal tastes.
The girls, boys and groups did absolutely nothing for me.
I think Nick made the worst choices out of them all.

Cheryl hands down. She picked by far the most interesting groups with the most star potential. BEKLN Mile/Melody Stone were boring and dated while The First Kings also lacked the current factor.

Nick made one mistake in putting Che through instead of Josh. Rita should have put through Monica instead of Louisa (but that was never going to happen) and Simon's category is just one hot mess. Actually, it isn't even a hot mess - it's just a pitiful mess.

I don't think the decisions are made by them. I think it's all staged to look that way. They are not going to waste money by putting up people on the live shows who can't deliver the goods. So I'd say they would have been given a list of recommendations.

Rita, hands down.

Probably Cheryl.

I also think Simon picked the 3 who were the most likely to get votes. Much as I liked the other 3, the X Factor voters were never going to vote for them in a million years. They would just go the way of all the Carolynne Pooles/Melanie Massons/Lorna Simpsons/Shelly Smiths etc and be eliminated immediately.

I think the only glaring error was Rita picking Kiera over Monika.

Cheryl is the only judges who picked the right 3 for me.

Rita - I would have picked Monica rather than Lauren

Nick - I've have gone for Josh and Ben rather than Sean and Mason

Simon - Jennifer instead of Bupsi
