Rahman was at fault for Shane Long's goal in the 2-1 win on Saturday, after his careless header fell kindly for the striker who then lobbed Thibaut Courtois.
The full-back was visibly disappointed by the mistake, pulling his shirt over his head in shame, but Hiddink has since urged him to forget about it and move on.

“He has to recover, of course but you cannot always wait,” he said.
“We need everyone and he did some decent work in recent games.

"But also we have to be critical because it’s obvious that, defensively, you have to do your job.”
Chelsea travel to Norwich this evening (7.45pm) and will be hoping to continue their fine form, putting together an unbeaten run of 10 games under Hiddink.

Alex Neill's side by comparison have picked up only six points from their last 10 games and are hovering dangerously above the relegation zone in 17th place.
Rahman has started in each of Chelsea’s last three games - his longest run in the starting lineup since arriving from German club Augsburg for £14million last summer.
