Talk to your manager, just be polite about it. Don't say things like "this guy talks like he knows everything! his previous team laid him off!" That doesn't seem very considerate.
Instead, you could phrase these concerns like:
"Hey, I've been having a bit of a frustrating time working with X. For someone of his experience, I thought he would be familiar with some of the simpler parts of our work, like Y. But in practice he has needed assistance there. It feels like he has been slowing the team down, rather than speeding it up.
I also feel like his attitude isn't the most productive. When we were discussing issue Z the other day, he was very insistent about an issue where he ended up being incorrect, and wasting a lot of the team's time.
I feel like this colleague is used to working in an area where he is very experienced, and isn't used to this sort of project. Maybe you could talk to him about it? It's hard for me to bring this up since he's so much more experienced than me. As it is, I feel like I would get more work done if I wasn't working together with him."
