Well, we were in the title race for a long time last season, and ofc there was the 07-08 season where we were on top until eduardo got injuried.
I agree Arsenal was decaying in the last years, but the last two seasons (including this one) we are on the rise, signings like Özil and Sanchez will boost us.
Quality players have been signed recently, but the team isn't improving (it's getting worse if anything). The players aren't the problem here imo, it's the fact that Wenger can't get them fired up and title hungry like he could a decaade ago.

And I already asked who else should we sign? There aren't many top managers around who are willing to take the challenge
Arséne who? -> that's what the press was asking when Wenger was appointed, because he was a nobody that had once won a Ligue 1 almost a decade before signing with Arsenal and was now managing in Japan.
Unless Arsenal wants to rush to guaranteed results, a top manager isn't necessarily the only option. There are some more obvious choices like Rudi García or Jorge Jesus (whom I'd love to see in a top club from a top league btw), and others with less international prestiege such as Nuno Espiritu Santo, Montanier, Tuchel, Favre, Roberto Martínez, Quique Sánchez-Flores, etc.... I'm sure there are many more options.
