Agree with this. I rate McAuley as the best defender I've seen at the Baggies in my lifetime.
The guy is just an out and out defender. Strong, positionally solid and heads everything that moves. Hugely important for defending corners - and when he's missing, we almost always look like conceding from them. Man City game is a case in point.
Obviously at 35, his time is coming to an end... But until his form starts to fade, he'd be the first name on the team sheet for me.
