I don't think Pioli is as clueless as you make him out to be. He might not be a mastermind tactician, and his teams might not play spectacular football, but he's not an idiot. He clearly has something in mind for this new Milan side. Whether it will work out or not, it's too be seen.
As for Adli, I think the kid is perfect as mezz'ala. He's the natural sub of Reijnders. We should consider keeping him.
It's not about being clueless, but about being stubborn. His player selections have been questionable for a while now.
Krunic playing as our sole DM. For me that's suicide. And we all know he will keep playing him because he likes him, no matter what happens.
How do you explain Bakayoko getting more minutes than Adli last season. He clearly does not rate Adli, so no matter what we think, we all know he'll be stuck to the bench again next season and that would be a waste
Personally I'm worried that we're going to be leaking a lot of goals next season just like last. The last time we were solid defensively is when we played the Benna, Tonali, Kessie midfield trio and we have none of those guys now.
Not to mention that if we keep relying on just individuals to score and create without really having a system we're going to still struggle for goals, even with the upgrades we made. Chuk and Rafa won't be able to do anything when we face teams with low blocks, which is 70% of the time and where we dropped the most points last season
