Palmer is now one of four players on 16 goals in the Premier League this season and just two behind Erling Haaland in the race for the Golden Boot.
"With the performance today it's impossible to say that he's not a top player," Pochettino said.
Palmer's form has earned him a senior England debut this season and given him a chance of making the final squad when Gareth Southgate's side head to the Euros this summer.
"He is doing a fantastic job, it is difficult to talk more about him. Today he showed the mentality and the quality," Pochettino said.
