Henri George Lansbury (born October 12, 1990 in Enfield, London) is an English football player, who currently plays for Arsenal. He wears the squad number 39.[1]

Lansbury has been at Arsenal since 1999, and has featured regularly for both the club's U18 and Reserve sides; in July 2007 he signed a professional contract with Arsenal. 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.[2] He finally made his 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. He was described by Alan Smith, a former Arsenal striker, as having "huge potential".[3]
