I think it's a bastardisation of the view that Tripper should have been converted to one, based on the fact he can shoot (going by his FKs) and cross, and his strengths certainly didn't seem to have been anything defensive.
Not massively different to the inversed Sissoko-at-right-back argument.
the irony is that Trippier started off his career at Man City as a Right midfielder but was moved back to defence
