Jon Smith was the man responsible for bringing the Premier League to the TV screens of one-fifth of the world's population across 180 different countries. He created the initial concept of 'Team England', introduced product placement to football to make it the booming commercial success it is today and brokered some of the biggest deals of the era for players such as Diego Maradona, Gary Pallister and Andrey Arshavin (with just 8 seconds of the transfer window left).
