0:00.0	In the Premier League, everyone pushes their hardest to win. And now it's your turn. With their EPL fantasy challenge, Coca-Cola are giving you a chance to win big by beating the best. All you have to do is build a team based on rules set by an icon. And to help you on your way, I've got a tip to help you build your team. Make sure you keep an eye on fixtures. Who are the players up against next? Sometimes it's not about form.
0:21.7	Like there are some players that, for whatever reason, always play well against certain teams.
0:27.0	To do your research. To get involved in the EPL Fantasy Challenge, all you've got to do is grab

0:36.6	vouchers. But if you beat the icon

1:46.0	and stories from his remarkable life, from his time serving as a paratrooper in the army,
