Exactly how I remember him.
He was truly a beastly defender though, one of the best headers of the ball I have ever seen. I think his major advantage over say someone like Terry defensively was his recovery pace. Terry is/was world class sitting deep, defending in his box, but never looks comfortable playing a high-line, Campbell was class in both systems (sitting deep or playing higher up the pitch). However on the ball, Terry is a far better footballer than Campbell ever was. I wouldn't be shocked if majority of football fans outside England see Terry as the better CB.
