The former England striker scored two goals in Wednesday night’s 5-2 Carling Cup victory at Scunthorpe.
“It’s been a strange start to the season,” said Owen.
“We’ve played weekend-weekend-weekend and then into a double-header international break so the manager’s kept a similar team through those three games.
“Subsequently there’s been a lot of us that haven’t played in the first month of the season but now the Champions League’s started, the League Cup’s started and there’s Premier League games all the time so I’d like to think there’s going to be plenty of games coming thick and fast.
“People make a lot of different situations but there’s a lot of us in the same boat that haven’t had many minutes.
“It’s a difficult juggling act for the manager because he’s got young kids that he wants to bring through and learn a thing or two, then there’s players that have been injured coming back into the action and players that need the games that have been fit, so it’s par for the course at Manchester United.
“But it’s a bit false at the minute because there have been so few games.”
