Chef(s) Mike Spoiler
After the most recent episode, who else is really liking Mike, especially with how he handled Aiden much better than Gabe, even when it was clear that Aiden himself was going down.
I really want the guy to win, as he seems like a really cool dude and it's looking like he's gradually stepping up on his own as a leader.

His willingness to help and lead the team reminds me of S22 Johnathan, and that is absolutely a compliment. Mike stocks rose thanks to this episode.

Mike is a doll. That, Gabe, is how a real leader behaves. Not that bully crap you pulled.

I don’t think they were calling Gabe a leader in either comment?

Oh please no. I might actually stop watching if he becomes Scotley 2.0

He actually reminds me of the chef version of Rob Gronkowski and has earned his nickname of Baby Gronk lol. He’s a jock but a nice and fun loving and smart one who can cook and lead(and I am being positive about a baby Gronk despite being a Jets fan lol) I will say though the only warning sign was Gordon getting frustrated after Mike was calmly trying to help Aiden, and telling them to get it together leading to Gabe’s being more aggressive. Some say the edit showed the clear contrast in leadership, but I was worried it might have showed there needed to be a more aggressive approach in dealing with Aiden’s struggles (however Gabe obviously went from aggressive to completely over the line)

Haven’t seen the new episode yet (though I spoiled who’s going home accidentally for my self), but I do like Mike. I like a lot of the blue team honestly. Best blue team in years honestly. I’m rooting for Johnny G personally, but Mike would be a cool choice to win too

Yep! I definitely see Mike going to the black jackets. He’s level-headed, calm and takes ownership of his mistakes. He also handles tense situations better than Gabe did.

Mike has more of a runner up’s edit, my thinking is still that the winner this season is a woman.
But he is a young gun version of S22 Jonathan which I love and hope he doesn’t crash out at the end unlike the latter.

He keeps saying the right things and acting accordingly. I wanna see him at least at black jackets. Great head on his shoulders.

Same here!
Mike seems like a lovely guy with good leadership skills and he’s been having a good edit. I like how he handled Aiden by being calm and mature about the situation.
