I dont feel for him, having a goalkeeper that can't kick is like having a striker

that cannot shoot.

Yes he made some good saves, however, all goalkeepers are good shot stoppers thats why they are keepers, however its the other parts of a goalkeepers game (comning for crosses, kicking, commanding the box) which sets apart good goalkeepers from the rest. Until Forster learns to kick he is not up to the job, its a fundamental part of playing in the position
