Should, but aren't. That, or they just aren't as good as people might believe.

I don't really think you played that well in the CL group stage games thus far. I've been watching each of them, and none have really set the group alight. The performance against Bolton was somewhat better, but then they are bottom of the league at the moment, so...
It's a large part Wenger's fault (also hugely on the player's shoulders of course) because the defending for many years now has been below par. He's the only man who can address that situation, either personally or by introducing new coaching staff that can do the job for him. He has chosen not to, and the common consensus is because of his stubbornness. That and your players seem to lack any motivation whatsoever. Szczesny is still pulling out good performances, and so is Sagna for the most part. RVP though must be considering his options more and more as time goes by.

I didn't mention the word "crisis", though it may be suitably apt in a few more weeks. 7 games, sure, not many of the 38 total to play in the Premier League, and yet for that not to be a problem, you're assuming that this poor Arsenal team will improve while Tottenham, Liverpool and whoever else is hovering around the European spots start performing poorly, despite having a much better set of players overall; judging by results over a 6 month period.
