You will need to remove all the old Adhesive and any loose plaster, 6" scraper would be best. Then smooth out the missing areas. It is much easier to tile on flat surfaces as you get a consistent bed depth

Looks like bonding coat and cannot be tiled directly too , scrape off all the loose and prime and patch in with one coat or re-skim. Another option if you have room is to dryline it.

Many thanks I think I’ll just dryline it.
