Fans won't forgive you even if your season has been outstanding. At least that's what Thibaut Courtois learned today during the crucial clash between Chelsea and Manchester City.
Just when the Blues had taken the lead thanks to Loic Remy's strike after 41 minutes, Courtois failed to clear a cross by Jesus Navas. Sergio Aguero controlled the ball and took a shot, which the Belgian keeper was unable to stop, setting the stage for David Silva's tying goal. Even his team-mates were not happy with his action, having John Terry kicking the ball angrily away from Chelsea's net.
Courtois' mistake was not missed by fans watching the game. Take a look at what they had to say about their shot-stopper's mishap.
Azpilicueta was poor to leave Navas, Ivanovic played him onside and Courtois was stranded.

One error doesn't stop Courtois being the best goalkeeper in the league. 25-odd games in, he's allowed one.

Quite surprising to see Courtois make a mistake aerially. He's a great commander of his area.

Szczney would get hammered for making the mistake Courtois did for that City goal.

Once in a while a player is bound to make a mistake. Unfortunately, for Courtois it happened in the worst game possible.

A "rare" mistake from Courtois? He is accountable for nearly every goal Chelsea have conceded this season due to being crap.

Courtois reminds me of De Gea's 1st season. Great shot stopper, but makes basic errors. In @PiersMorgan's words, "Flappy hands".

Courtois could drop my first born, I will not criticise him.
