Not a rule, but making the right substitution increases your chances of winning the game. Mourinho with Inter won god knows how many matches thanks to his subs. Mourinho, Lippi, Ferguson etc always reacted fast when struggling against average teams.
Sometimes you have to risk. Conte is pretty slow in that aspect and takes ages for him to react.

How many?
There are a couple of cases, like for example the one two days ago, when we had the lead but played bad and Conte failed to react accordingly, but when we aren't winning against weaker teams, we almost always push forward like mad, attacking changes are regularly made (definitely not in the last minutes as you claim) and we take risks at the back. If we played for draws or to keep the undefeated streak, we weren't gonna play like that. I can only think of the away match to Chievo and the home match vs Siena when both Conte and the players should have desired the win much more than they showed. But noone can convince me that Conte and the players were happy to stay undefeated when we hosted Siena.

No coach doesn't want to win a trophy even if it was Spider-man trophy.
Conte wants to win a Scudetto to prove himself and become fan's favorite like any other coach but he's doing too many mistakes. The worst part is that some of you see nothing wrong with 13th draw or 14th.
A simple math to some,
13th draw is as good as 4wins and 9defeats.

That's true Rab, but did we really not show a desire to win on almost all of the matches we drew? Whenever it happens that we're drawing a small team, or losing against a better team, the last 10,15,20, 30 minutes are always played in the opponent's box.
All our strikers this season, bar Matri, have a goal to shot ratio worse than 1:15. All of them, from Vucinic, to Quag, Borriello and Del Piero. When your strikers need at least 15 shots to score one goal, it's extremely hard to blame the coach for all these failures.

... Also the timing of his subs is another problem. He takes too much time to make his subs.With that I totally agree.
And I think most of us here would prefer wins to draws and a bit better reaction time from Conte to convert them to wins, but I think he will improve on this in the future, or at least I hope he will. And considering what we have got before him, I'm willing to wait few years to see what this team under him really materializes into, not expect everything from his first year here, because he really looks promising.

That's crazy saying our bench is taht good. And what mainly speperates us and milan is Ibra. Which alone can win against small teams and that wins titles. Sadly this year we don't have such player.

Exactly, it's when we need right substitutions like Del Piero for instance. It was a crime not play him in the last 30min of Siena, Parma or Chievo. Him with Quag or Elia would have used our opponents parked bus in their box pretty well. That's my main problem with Conte, his wrong and late subs. But that has nothing to do with him not wanting to win a game, it's just that he believes and sees things his way.
I agree with the rest of your post.

Del Piero, Quag, Vucinic and Borriello are probably trying to break a record:
Del Piero 0 goals/15 shots
Quag 2 goals/29 shots
Vucinic 3 goals/61 shots
Borriello 0 goals/9 shots
TOTAL: 5 goals/114 shots or 23 shots needed from these strikers to score 1 single goal.
The fuckers usually miss the entire goal. Of these 114 shots only 39 were on target. That's 1/3. They shoot 3 times and only once they're on target. And when they're hitting the target, their shots are saved. They shoot 8 times on target and they score only once.
That's probably a world record.
