34 or 36mm socket (from memory) for wheel hub nut.
Circlip pliers for bearing retainer.
flypress/hydraulic press or bearing placer to re fit bearing. Don't hammer it in willy nilly or you will be replacing it all over again shortly.
Then you need sockets and basic hand tools to remove strut (or lower part of strut) I prefer to remove entire strut as you have more to grip on when removing / replacing bearing.
There is a thread here somewhere about removing strut (use search facility) Follow that, then the last bit is to replace the bearing. Use grease on the inside surface of the strut to help the bearing in.

Split or missing ball joint boot is an MOT fail. The shield is to protect the rubber from the heat from the brake disc. It will work without, but the ball joint boot might not last as long.
