Henri George Lansbury (born October 12, 1990 in Enfield, London) is an English football player, who currently plays for Arsenal. He was educated at Cranborne Primary School, Potters Bar and then on to Chancellor's School in Brookmans Park, Hertfordshire.

Lansbury has been at Arsenal since 1999, and has featured regularly for both the club's U18 and Reserve sides. To date he has only featured in the League Cup for Arsenal's first team; he was named in the squad for their match against Liverpool on January 9 2007, but did not feature. He was on the substitute's bench for a second time on September 25 2007, this time against Newcastle United, and again did not play. [cite web | url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/league_cup/7008002.stm | title=Arsenal 2-0 Newcastle |publisher=BBC Sport] He finally made his first team debut on 31 October 2007, in Arsenal's 3-0 League Cup win over Sheffield United, when he was brought on to replace Theo Walcott in the 83rd minute. [cite web |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/league_cup/7065196.stm |title=Sheff Utd 0-3 Arsenal | publisher=BBC Sport]

He was described by Alan Smith, a former Arsenal striker, as having "huge potential". [cite web |last=Smith |first=Alan |authorlink=Alan Smith (footballer born 1962) |url=http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/main.jhtml?xml=/sport/2008/01/09/sfnars109.xml |title= Arsenal now young, gifted and English |publisher =Daily Telegraph] On July 1, 2008 he signed his first professional contract with Arsenal Football Club.

He missed the second half on the 2007-08 season due to glandular fever but returned to fitness in time to participate in pre-season training and the 2008 pre-season friendly games.He has played on the right side of the field in all of these games (four times as a right winger and once as a right back) instead of in his favoured central midfield position. Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has also confirmed that Henri will be playing in the Carling Cup competition in the 2008-09 season, and he came on as a substitute in Arsenal's 6-0 win over Sheffield United in the third round of that competition.
