Based on what we saw, Nicko, I'd have to agree with you. Bryan would be the best fit.
Stricktly from a cooking chops point of view, Michael would be better. But to fit he'd have to meet a few requirements: 1. Lose the attitude, 2. learn how to be a team player, and 3. listen to what they want, rather than what he wants to cook. Odds of that happening, however, are slim to zero.
