Actually, it's anything but evidence. It was said at the very start of RG 2009 (ie when Nadal and Djokovic were still in the tournament) by a French national coach. Was he talking about the talk between French coaches only? I have no idea. Take it as you will.
Name? Oh, I guess he wants to remain anonymous. I hate it when people spread rumours anonymously instead of standing up for what they believe in and stating it publicly. But then there is the annoying burden of proof on your shoulder so I guess anonymity is better.
Considering his strength, stamina, endurance, his stance against controls
This has been repeated by many players on the tour, the whereabouts rule is bothering a lot of people. A couple of weeks ago, I saw Sorana Carstea complain about it on Romanian TV. Are you implying that Carstea is doping?
Nadal is hardly alone in his dislike of this rule.
and his tendency to defend everyone accused of doping,
That "everyone"(as far as I know) are Gasquet(whom he has known since childhood and who was busted for coke use, hardly performance enhancing drugs) and more recently Contador. I am not familiar with cycling but they "busted" him with 50 picograms(a picogram is one trillionth of a gram) per mililiter of clenbuterol in his system. Wiki says that this amount is 40 times below the minimum standards required for detection by WADA. Dr. Douwe de Boer, Contador's scientific expert said that 50pg is 180 times less than the amount shown to induce physical effects by the drug. Make of that what you will.
Oh, there was also his defense of phelps, when the US media was all over him for despite the fact that most american teens experience some light drug use in their teens. Joints and bongs aren't exactly rare items in the US.
his aggressivity on court
Connors,McEnroe and Hewitt must've been doped to the gills then. Connors probably had the testosterone level of bullsharks.
the fact that his name came out in several doping rumours/scandals over the years,
I always believe rumours, don't you? What scandal are you talking about? Operacion Puerto has been hanging above Nadal since Fuentes's bust in 2006 and guess what, that is based on rumours alone, there is no official link between the two except for the fact that Fuentes said "tennis players" were among his clients as well. I wonder what the hell Nadal has been using since his main supplier has been busted.
the abysmal difference in level he can show from one part of the season to the next, is Nadal doping or isn't he doping?
So you're saying that a player should have the same level, on all surfaces, at all times of the year? That actually sounds even more suspicious. Sure, they cycle on and off(the guys that use PED) but they do it between tourneys. Their actual performance in the tournaments is based on the skill on that surface.
Nadal has actually been one of the more constant players in this respect, there was no wild jump on any surface. He has owned clay since 05 and has steadily risen on grass and HC, taking his licks along the way. And you'll notice that Nadal basically wins mostly on the surfaces where his strokes are most effective, slow HC, grass, clay. On medium-fast and indoors, he is average when compared to other surfaces. And guess what, medium fast and indoors are in the second part of the season, when Nadal doesn't do so well. I very much doubt that if you put a indoor tourney in March, Nadal wins it. He doesn't have the game to win indoors.
And still, if Nadal cycles off in the second part of the season, how the hell did he make 2 USO SF(2008-2009),2 USO finals(2010-2011,winning one), win Tokio 2010(made finals in 2011 again), make Shanghai finals(in 09'), Paris finals(in 07'), win Montreal(05'), not to mention making two TMC SF(2006-2007, ousted by Fed in both) and one final(2010 - beat by Fed again). And all this without PED in his system. Imagine what he could achieve with it.
Why should they make a fuss? It's all a question of procedure. In 2009, the AFLD (French antidoping agency) asked the ITF whether they could operate at RG Now, after 2009, the AFLD wasn't at RG, but I don't know whether they didn't ask to be there or whether they did and the ITF refused.
Because they are supposedly against anti-doping and if they feel that other authorities(that are supposed to withhold the same ideals) are keeping them away from suspicious players(or shielding them in any way) they should bring it to public attention. If the AFLD feel that they are better at discovering doped up players but are being shunned by certain authorities of certain events, they should yell it in public. Tbh, I don't think that's the case and the whole "case", as you say, is based on hearsay.
Still, it would be very interesting to see if Djoko and Rafa entered any events where AFLD was present with testing.
Seriously, the "Serbian" doesn't have to beat the whole "Spanish doping industry". The fact that he's got a very favourable matchup against Nadal is obviously a big help for him. Bottom line, the "Serbian" only has to be on the same level as the "Spanish doping industry" to beat Nadal, he doesn't have to beat it.
If the premise is that all Djokovic had to do to beat up doped up Nadal is get the same fitness from using PED, then I think it's highly unlikely that Djoko's team could search the market for the same or better product than what Rafa is using, considering that, according to theory, Nadal has the entire Spanish Doping industry behind him. And still he has been struggling with Djokovic for over a year now so I guess there are no better, exclusive products, that Rafa can use to defeat Djoker from a stamina POV.
Really scary.
