Well firstly, yes I think that's a leap, and secondly Teemu is an experienced professional

and therefore would normally be trusted as part of the decision if he said it didn't feel right.

The way I read it is that he is probably not in a lot of pain, but to be sure if he is match fit involves testing him running and kicking a ball with boots on, and so until the swelling goes down enough for that they can't test. Hence see if it's reduced enough in the morning to do that test.

Now, I haven't played enough football to be able to sa this for a fact but I would imagine that if a footballer's foot was a different size and shape than normal, it might very much affect their game even if there was no pain.
