As I said earlier the wrapping up of mythology is always less satisfying than the creation of it. You either have loose ends like how the many faced God works or poorly explained myth and ritual.
The chase scene was over done but over all I liked the resolution of Arya realizing she can't give up her past through the use of the play. A little Hamlet tossed in there.
As for the faceless man he got his face that was owed to the wall. This storyline allowed Arya to become a trained swordsmen who now can impact the happenings of Westoros.
I loved the hound scenes. He gets new boots at the end. The hound as part of the brotherhood will be neat. The Jaime scenes again were fantastic with the nuance of what motivates him as a character and his version of honour and Briennes version of honour. They are both the same, unrelenting service to who they are pledged to.
I think this show is quite easy to wrap up, Denaryous makes it across the Sea to take Westoros from a disorganized King's Landing. Then makes her way North for John and denaryous to ride Dragons and torch the white walkers, buddy going to the citadel figures out John's true heritage but not before Denaryous and John hook up. Leaving the show starting and ending with brother and sisters banging.
