I wasn’t overly impressed with Dean (albeit from only the highlights!) I thought neither player who was dismissed committed 2 cautionable offences and were therefore unlucky to be dismissed.
On the other hand, Darren England had an excellent match at Newcastle. Calm and authoritative, decisions generally correct including all cautions and match kept well under control.
Herein lies the problem however. Certain referees can have a string of below par performances yet receive PL games more often than not. Other referees, regardless of how well they referee, know that there will likely be a period of weeks before their next one, not allowing them to build up a good run. This is where fresh management of the PGMOL is needed - referees should be selected on a weekly basis by their performances and not simply given games regardless because they have been a PL ref for a long period of time!
