I suggest having a friendly conversation with your team member about his opposition of your ideas, and kindly directing him to back up his argument with concrete evidence. However, if that doesn't work and he continues to oppose your ideas despite you providing valid arguments of why your ideas could work better, perhaps its time to consider other solutions such as bringing in more experts to support or counter his ideas. Ultimately it is the decision of management as you both provide valid perspectives which need to be taken into consideration when it comes down to implementing a plan for the team.

It is best not to try and make your team member feel inferior. Find ways of understanding his perspectives so that you can effectively collaborate together for the common good of the team.
