I mean in shortly your code is wrong in the first line, the comparing is wrong. The variable $post should store = the data of the request via get_transient() and not compare ===.
So you should switch to:
if ( false === ( $posts = get_transient('posts_array') ) ) {
// this code runs when there is no valid transient set
}
